No, our program is designed to meet the standards established by the Educational Psychology Program, the certification requirements of the Texas State Board of Educator Certification for School Counselors and the Texas State Board of Examiners of Licensed Professional Counselors. The Counselor Education program at the University of Texas is NOT accredited by CACREP. Currently, CACREP accreditation is not required by the State of Texas for the practice of counseling. However, some states do require CACREP accreditation. If you will be seeking to relocate, please check the state licensure requirements. If you determine that CACREP accreditation is required for a specific location, a list of CACREP accredited programs is available.
