I strongly oppose the NCLEP plan. It is not a simple licensure portability plan. Rather, it provides portability only for the segment of licenced counselors who attended CACREP approved programs. This is unacceptable becuase there are many high-quality counselor training programs that have chosen not to seek CACREP accreditation. I teach in one such program at the University of Miami. Some of our graduates want to practice in Virginia. Their licensure portability should not be blocked or impeded by this initiative. This is an unacceptable guild initiative that constitutes restraint of trade.
