Program Evaluation Program Outcomes
EMU’s Master of Arts in Counseling program is accredited in Clinical Mental Health
Counseling by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP). Students graduating with a CACREP-accredited degree can more often easily achieve state counseling licensure and experience
greater ease of license portability between state licensing boards. Students with CACREP-accredited counseling degrees are often considered exceptional candidates for doctoral
programs.
