Students develop expertise, knowledge, and skill in assessment, counseling, and consultation.
The program combines course work related to current issues and literature in psychology with courses in advanced assessment techniques and extensive internship experiences. Students who successfully complete the CAGS Program in School Psychology are eligible for certification by the Massachusetts Department of Education as a school psychologist. No more than six semester hours of CAGS credit from an accredited institution other than Rivier College completed within five years prior to the date of admission as a matriculated student will be accepted for transfer credit.
