Practicum I for School Counseling

Practical, on-the-job, supervised and evaluated field experiences that provide the foundation for internship experiences. Candidates develop conceptual and professional skills related to their practice at a field site. Candidates learn the procedures for evaluating counseling and guidance programs in the areas of a learner-centered guidance curriculum, learner-centered planning, learner-centered responsive services, and learner-centered system support. A candidate must earn a final grade of B (3.0) minimum in the practicum/internship course in order to receive credit. If not, the course will need to be repeated. This course may be taken multiple times for credit. The first attempt will be transcripted with a grade. If the class is repeated for additional credit, the PT version of the course should be used, which will be transcripted with a CR/NC grade. This course contains a field-based service-learning component. For students who completed EDSC 6316 and EDSC 6318.
