Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Pastoral Counseling
Curriculum Overview of the Doctor of Theology Degree Program


Procedures and Requirements
 
We offer a research-driven Ph.D. graduate program rather than a course-driven one based on a European education model. This model helps students gain a deeper understanding of the practice of clinical pastoral counseling through research and self-discovery. Upon completing each research project and assigned practicums, the student is awarded the distinguished Chaplains College School of Graduate Studies Degree of Clinical Christian Counseling.

Advance NCCA Licensing Requirements 
 
Individuals who already hold a doctorate degree in counseling or a related/ accepted field may elect to complete the requirements for clinical licensing through the National Christian Counselors Association. For more information about professional licensing call to speak with our NCCA supervisor Dr. Sean Alexander about your counseling future. drseanalexander@gmail.com
 
For distance learning students all exams if any must be proctored by a qualified proctor
