College Counseling Practicum

The final component of the Specialized Certificate in College Counseling allows participants the opportunity to network with colleagues and apply their newly developed skills.

Participants will engage in online discussions as well as research and develop a final project.

This course is intended for individuals who have completed the first two courses (Principles of College Counseling & College Counseling Strategies) in the UC San Diego Extended Studies College Counseling Certificate Program.

The goal of this last course in the certificate sequence is to allow students to apply their growing knowledge of college counseling in an extended, in-depth project designed to meet their own professional needs.

Students are encouraged to be aware of the larger educational issues that impact their own work as a college counselor.

It is hoped that students will continue to be involved in the college counseling profession in a serious manner and see themselves as influential and ethical practitioners who value research and best practices.
