The Counseling Practicum course is designed asa University supervised experience that meets regularly according to the schedules you will see on the enclosed sample syllabi. While you will be expected to work with actual clients seeking counseling assistance, this courses differs from the 600 clock hour internship requirements in the program. The basic purpose of practicum is to help students learn foundational and advanced counseling skills under the primary supervision of Xavier Faculty in cooperation with the site supervisor. The basic purpose of internship is to help students learn the full range of services and duties at a selected site under the primary supervision of a site based supervisor.  \nRequired pre-requisites for enrolling in these courses include, at minimum and with no exceptions, satisfactory completion of the following courses or their equivalent:  \nCOUN 533 Counseling Theories and Techniques COUN 536 Group Process  \nCOUN 579 Psychological & Achievement Tests COUN 631 Counseling Issues & Ethics COUN 669 Counseling Pre-Practicum  \nAlso, you will note from the enclosed syllabus, the workload for this course is significant. Students are strongly encouraged to limit their enrollment in other program courses while involved with COUN 773.  \nThe practicum experience is an important process by which students begin to directly apply their counseling skills. The learning that occurs from such courses is excellent preparation for the integrative internship and later practice as a professional counselor.
