小猪视频 Counseling Professor calls accreditation 鈥渧ital鈥 to CIU鈥檚 program. That鈥檚 why she was excited when she learned that CACREP gave its stamp of approval to CIU for eight more years.


CACREP stands for Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs. Its accreditation is voluntarily sought by education programs offering entry-level master鈥檚 degrees in counseling and/or doctoral degrees in counselor education and supervision.


Nanna, who graduated from CIU鈥檚 Counseling program in 2000, says it鈥檚 necessary these days for counseling programs to be CACREP accredited because states are scrutinizing whether counselors have the right kind of training to do their jobs effectively.听


鈥淐IU has a great history of making sure our students are getting the best training,鈥 Nanna said, adding that the accreditation is especially important for a biblical university. 鈥淲e鈥檝e always thought it important to be good professionally, as well as have the Christian foundation and faith integration.鈥


Nanna says because CACREP training and competencies are integrated into the CIU program, graduates are better prepared for licensure exams and to work effectively with clients. 听


鈥淏y the time our students get to the exams, they have been exposed to (CACREP) training, or have had testing on that training, or they have written a paper on that particular competency 鈥 they鈥檝e had live interactions with it,鈥 Nanna said.
