The National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC) is the premier credentialing body for counselors, ensuring that counselors who become board certified have achieved the highest standard of practice through education, examination, supervision, experience, and ethical guidelines.
The Hood College Counseling Program continues to participate in NBCC's National Certified Counselor (NCC) Application Options for Participating Universities. Students in participating programs, and who are in their final 1-2 semesters of their master's programs, have a unique opportunity to begin the application process prior to graduation. Counseling students who are interested in participating in either the Fall or Spring application cycle with NBCC should contact the NBCC Campus Coordinator, Dr. Atiya Smith, for more information. The Counseling Program Director will also share information about the application cycle on the Counseling Blackboard page. More information about NBCC's program can be found here: https://www.nbcc.org/resources/applicants/students
