Counseling
The Master of Education in School
Counseling is designed to provide the framework for school
counselor preparation and to enhance the professional development
of certified teachers who are seeking a graduate degree in
school counseling.
The Master of Education in School
Counseling is a 39-hour, non-thesis professional development
program leading to the Standard Counselor Certificate.
The program is designed to meet or exceed the certification
requirements for School Counselors as established by the
State Board for Educator Certification. General prerequisites
include two years teaching
experience in an accredited and approved school. The program
is interdisciplinary and builds on the student's prior
education and experience. A systematic schedule of shared
self-appraisals, threaded throughout the program allows
students to monitor their progress toward professional
goals in partnership with other forms of student development.
Upon the successful completion
of the Master of Education in School Counseling at Dallas
Baptist University, passing the School Counselor Texas
Examinations of Educator Standards (TExES), and having
two years of acceptable teaching experience, the student
will be recommended for the Professional Counselor Certificate.
