CACREP Accreditation

The Counseling Program is accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP). This is the gold standard accreditation for counseling programs that makes the licensure process easier for graduates, qualifies them for governmental employment (e.g., Veterans Affairs, military), and military insurance reimbursements (Tricare).

Currently, the two concentrations accredited by CACREP are as follows:

· Clinical Mental Health Counseling

· School Counseling

The Counseling Faculty hold the accreditation status of the program in the highest regard. The Counseling Program at 51ÂÜÀò is one of the oldest accredited counseling programs in the state of Louisiana, with the School Counseling concentration achieving accreditation in 1987 and the Clinical Mental Health Counseling concentration achieving accreditation in 2012.

The Counseling Program at 51ÂÜÀò currently has accreditation until March of 2028. The faculty will begin the next self-study in September of 2025 for the September 2026 submision. To review the Counseling Program’s accreditation status, please visit the CACREP website .
