I oppose this as I did attend a school that is currently in process of become CACREP, but I have already been approved to be a resident and have year under my belt. I have passed the NCE, and I am looking forward to taking the state licensure exam. I believe that if one can pass, what many consider, one of the hardest state licensure exams than one is prepared with experience to practice. If the board approves one to become a resident then they must satisfy what is in place, correct? Please do not hamper those that have worked hard to be where they are and those that are currenlty working just as hard just for a CACREP status, let one go for licensure and practice, a degree doesn't make a counselor; it is the work that they do and the impact they have on those they serve in the clinical field not the CACREP seal.
