Program Completion in School Counseling and Pennsylvania Certification

The program requirements for graduation are identified earlier in these pages. These requirements are necessary but not sufficient for certification as a school counselor in Pennsylvania. Upon successful completion of the program, Geneva College will recommend school counseling program students to the state for certification in elementary or secondary certification. The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) will not certify individuals without that recommendation. In addition to the recommendation, students need to provide passing scores on the PRAXIS I exam before a certificate will be issued.
