Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology
Location offered: Springfield, Missouri only
The
Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology (MACP) at Forest Institute is a flexible and licensable degree program. With a course schedule that allows for life to continue outside of school, the MACP allows working professionals to continue working. The MACP is offered in a non-traditional format with classes held on evenings and weekends. The
curriculum requires completion of 48 credit hours of coursework, practicum, and a capstone project. To complete the MACP, our students take classes when it is convenient for them.
Students who commence the MACP program have the opportunity to focus on one class at a time and complete each class within four weeks. This format allows our students to attend part-time or full-time, based upon their needs. Students who enroll in every four week session can complete the program in as little as 18 months. The program is designed for students who would like to become Licensed Professional Counselors in the State of Missouri.
The faculty, staff, and administration of the program are focused on students and strive to provide the best possible student service and instruction. Instructors in the program are actively practicing professionals who bring their everyday hands-on experience and expertise to the classroom.
