There is no documented evidence that licensed counselors who graduated from programs accredited by CACREP are better prepared than their peers who graduated from other programs! Why then, should the majority of licensed counselors who did not graduate from programs accredited by CACREP be required to show 7 more years of experience than their peers who graduated from programs accredited by CACREP?
I recommend the ACA portability act:

There is no evidence that CACREP should be the only viable accrediting agency, or that CACREP schools do any better than other regionally accredited schools that follow the original 60-credit training model.
Thank you.
