Theory and Practice in Peer Counseling and Education: Peer Supervision

Catalog description

In this course, which is a companion to E CPY 403, 404, and 405 (Peer Counseling and Peer Education: Theory and Practice I, II, and III), students will have the opportunity to practice peer counseling and peer education supervision skills through practical experiences which will occur on the Middle Earth crisis hotline and/or in the Middle Earth outreach education service. Students will also participate in weekly supervision groups facilitated by instructional staff. A primary strength of this course is that learning can take place in the context of a campus service agency, allowing students the opportunity to apply skills which they have learned. Prerequisite(s): E CPY 400, 403, 404, and 405, or equivalent; and permission of instructor.
