[humanser] National Counseling Examination Accommodation

[Janice Toothman]

Hi Everyone,

I am new to the list.  I have a Master's in Psychology with an specialty 
in counseling.  I have registered for the National Counseling 
Examination (NCE) with the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC) 
and I am waiting to hear from them when I can take the exam.

They told me that since I requested the use of a computer with JAWS to 
use my Braille Display and FM System (I am Deaf-Blind) that they will 
need to find a University that will allow me to take the exam rather 
than the usual sites they have arranged for the tests.

Have anyone had difficulties with getting accommodations for the NCE 
examination?

At this point, I am going to have to ask for an extension from the 
Maryland Board of Professional Counselor and Therapists (BOPC) who 
issued me my eligibility letter for the examination because it expired 
in the end of March.
