Dear Counselor and MFT educators � as part of the Board�s effort to streamline the license application process, during the March 2017 meeting of the CSWMFT Board, the Board voted to
<b>eliminate</b> an application requirement for certain <b>LPC</b> and <b>MFT</b> applicants. The Internship Supervisor Evaluation Form for LPC applicants will no longer be required for LPC applicants graduating from CACREP-accredited programs. New applicants
graduating from non-CACREP programs will be required to submit the Internship Supervisor Evaluation Form to the Board.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; line-height: 105%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
The Board also eliminated the Internship and/or Practicum Evaluation Rating Form for MFT applicants graduating from COAMFTE-accredited programs. New MFT applicants graduating from non-COAMFTE-accredited programs will be required to submit the Internship and/or
Practicum Evaluation Rating Form.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; line-height: 105%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
These changes are effective as of March 17, 2017. Application instructions on the CSWMFT Board web site now reflect these changes. We hope the elimination of these forms for a majority of applicants will help to simplify the license application process.</p>
