2023-24 Undergraduate Catalog
Substance Use Counseling Minor
|
|
The Substance Use Counseling minor is designed to meet all of the requirements for licensure as a Provisional Licensed Alcohol and Drug counselor (PLADC) by the Nebraska Department of Human and Human Services - Professional and Occupational Licensure issue. According to the revised statutes for the Alcohol and Drug Counseling Practice Act (Neb. Rev. Stat.) (§§ 38-301 to 38-321), the PLADC requires documentation demonstrating successful completion of eight courses. Five of the courses needed for the PLADC are required for Human Relations majors: PSY 234 - Introduction to Counseling Theories and Techniques; PSY 259 - Lifespan Development; HRE 315 - Group Counseling; HRE 417 - Multicultural Counseling; HRE 428 - Ethics.
In addition, individuals pursuing the Provisional Alcohol and Drug Counselor license are required to obtain 300 hours of supervised clinical work experience providing alcohol and drug counseling services to clients. A six-credit internship (HRE 421 ) is included in the minor.

Requirements for the Substance Use Counseling Minor (33 credits)
*Note:
As previously stated, several courses listed above are also required by majors that align with the minor. Consequently, this would reduce the credits needed specifically for this minor. For example, a Human Relations major would need 18 additional credits to receive this minor as 15 of the 33 credits would be completed for the major.
