Description
The practicum in school counselling provides an opportunity for students to synthesize the theoretical information on individual counselling and group counselling from their coursework and apply it in an early, middle, or senior years school setting. The course provides both a laboratory experience and a field experience under the joint supervision of a U of W supervisor and a site supervisor. The school counselling practicum is designed to assist students in learning the function and procedures that accompany the role of a school counselor through observation, shadowing, and reviewing relevant documentation. Students are required to complete a minimum of 100 hours in a supervised school setting. Paid working hours in a school division shall not count towards these practicum hours. Please see website on current application procedures. Field placements are limited and placements will only be arranged by the Faculty of Education Placement Coordinator.
