I am a counselor educator and I have trained school counselors and mental health counselors at the masters level for many years. I also serve on the Indiana state board, Professional Licensing Agency, that licenses mental health workers including counselors. I strongly believe in license portability. We have done that in Indiana. We did it without questioning the status of the program that is licensed by another state. I fully support the ACA plan that allows licensed counselors to be treated equally across the nation. I have participated in many accreditation site visits for CACREP. I have also done a few for non CACREP programs. I have not found any difference in the quality of the training.
