Hello,
After graduating with my undergraduate degree, I decided that I wanted to do a fully online program in Counseling and I did not really do a lot of research about the field other than finding out about this program. I have noticed a couple of odd things about the program I am in. One odd thing I noticed is that the courses are only a couple of months long and don't really get into a lot of detail about various subjects in the field. Another odd thing I noticed is that for the internships and practicum, the student is responsible for finding their own site and receives little to no help from the school. Is it normal to not have any help in regards to looking for internships or not have any involvement from the school or program? Another thing I am also noticing is that the course load is pretty easy and in some cases less than the coursework I had in undergrad. Also, the program I am in is not CACREP-accredited which is something I am worried about when I graduate. So what I am trying to ask is that would you all consider this all to be odd?
Thank You all for taking the time to read this,
