Discussion: Certification and Licensing
An archer would not shoot an arrow without first looking and
taking aim at the target. Similarly, it is important to have an
aim in mind when pursuing a career in addictions counseling.
Becoming familiar with certification and licensing criteria in
your locale is necessary in preparing to be a counselor of almost
any type. Credentialing, including certification and licensing,
attempts to ensure that addictions professionals meet criteria
and competencies and have a core knowledge base and set of
skills established by respected regulatory agencies. As of 2012,
there was no one national or international agency providing
credentialing of addictions counselors, but many agencies and
organizations offer counseling certification. For example,
organizations such as the International Association for
Addictions and Offender Counselors, the International
Certification Reciprocity Consortium, and the Association for
Addictions Professionals all have developed certification
programs for addictions professionals.
For this week’s Discussion, you research the criteria for a
practicing addictions professional in your state, province, or
locale. You then consider what competencies you have and need
toward meeting these criteria.
To prepare:
Select one addictions profession.
From what you have learned throughout this course, consider
what competencies you have gained for certification and
licensing for this chosen addictions profession.
Research criteria in your state, province, or locale for
certification for this chosen addictions profession.
By Day 4
Post
a brief description of requirements for certification and
licensure in your state, province, or locale for the addictions
profession you chose. Then, describe one competency you
believe you have developed as part of your participation in this
course and one competency you believe you need to develop to
work as a professional in the field of addiction.
