Chemical Dependency Counseling
Designed to prepare graduates to work as chemical dependency counselors, these programs
meet the educational requirements of the Maryland Board of Professional Counselors
and Therapists and the Maryland Addiction Counselor Certification Board (MACCB).
The associate degree program allows students to enter the job market or transfer
to a four-year college or university and work toward a bachelor’s degree in social
work or psychology.
The certificate program is designed to provide students who have earned a bachelor’s
degree or higher in a health or human services counseling field from a regionally-accredited
college or university with specialized training in chemical dependency counseling.
In order to graduate with an associate of applied science degree or certificate
of proficiency, students must obtain a grade of “C” or better in all chemical dependency
counseling, psychology and sociology courses.
