RECN 712 Rehabilitation Counseling Internship (600 CRC‐supervised clock hours) Credit 1-9
A supervised Rehabilitation Counseling Internship enables the student’s socialization into the field of rehabilitation counseling and the development of the appropriate professional skills, experiences and competencies as outlined by the Commission on Rehabilitation Education (CORE) and the Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification (CRCC). The students will gain knowledge that will enhance their ability to help individuals with disabilities find and maintain adequate vocational and personal independence. The internship experience will take place under the supervision of a qualified rehabilitation, rehabilitation related or allied health professional and involve direct experiences with persons with disabilities. Appropriate selected facilities involved in the rehabilitation of individuals who have a physical, mental, developmental, behavioral, or sensory disability will provide an opportunity for students to apply theories and skills. These facilities may include state departments of rehabilitation, centers for independent living, psychiatric hospitals or psychosocial programs, sheltered workshops, supported employment agencies, and institutions or organizations serving individuals with developmental disabilities, substance abusing persons, the industrially injured, agriculturally- or rural-related injuries, aged or adult/juvenile offenders. Students interested in higher education may opt to conduct their internship experience in the Services for Students with Disabilities program at an approved college or university.
