Clinical training has a capacity crisis

40%

Of required clinical training hours are direct client interaction

Only 280 of 700 CACREP-required hours involve direct client work (40 of 100 in practicum, 240 of 600 in internship), limiting opportunities for real-world practice and repetition.

Maximum individual-supervision ratio in clinical training

Accreditation standards cap individual/triadic supervision at one faculty member for every six students per practicum or internship course — intensive, and hard to scale.

700 hrs

Minimum supervised clinical hours required before graduation

CACREP-accredited programs require 100 practicum hours plus a 600-hour internship — a substantial capacity and supervision burden for programs to deliver.

Effect size of practicum on counseling self-efficacy
