The practicum provides an opportunity for students to master, integrate and display the knowledge and skills which have been taught during the classroom component of the Addictions or Community Counselling Skills Certificate. The practicum has two components: a workplace/agency setting and a classroom setting. At the workplace/agency setting, students under the direction of an approved supervisor counsel clients either individually or in a group setting, attend agency case conferences, and perform other related duties. The classroom component provides students an opportunity to demonstrate their classroom and practicum placement learning. Prerequisite: Successful completion of all courses in the Addictions or the Community Counselling Skills Program.
