  • Crimes       that might or would prevent a person from becoming a licensed counselor

  • When       will you complete your portfolio?

  • When       will you meet the experiential and supervision licensure requirements?
  • When       will you expect to become fully licensed?

Your final product will be a 3- to 5-page Microsoft Word document written in APA format, utilizing at least three scholarly sources.
