Licensing Information

The NCCA’s Licensing Board of Examiners offers several licensing categories.  The category for which one qualifies will depend on educational background and experience as well as one’s ministerial credentials.

Licensing categories include:

      • Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor
      • Licensed Clinical Christian Counselor
        • (The above license titles are for those who hold a Master’s Degree and Ministerial credentials, both require the same program of study.)
      • Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor-Advanced Certification
      • Licensed Clinical Christian Counselor-Advanced Certification
        • (The above license titles are for those who hold a Doctorate Degree and Ministerial credentials, both require the same program of study.)

*NOTE*  This is not a state license.  State licensing must be applied for on an individual basis.

NCCA requires 12 CEU’s a year to maintain a license.  FBCS will provide the NCCA’s CEU courses at a fee of $250 per course (2 courses meet 12 CEU requirements).  CEU classes taken through FBCS will be added to transcript as Post Graduate work.  CEU’s may also be obtained through other means and transferred to NCCA for a transferal fee.  This information may be obtained through the FBCS Clinical Supervisor.

Refund Policy for Licensing Programs

1.      If a student withdraws from school or drops a class in writing within thirty (30) days of date of registration for a course, FBCS will refund all tuition charges.
2. If a student withdraws from school or drops a course in writing between thirty-one (31) and sixty (60) days, and has a passing grade when dropped, 50% of the relevant tuition charges will be refunded.
3.   NO refunds on tuition are allowed on any withdrawal after sixty (60) days, or for students who are dismissed by the administration, or who withdrawal with a failing grade.
4.   There will be no refunds on material charges.

Other Information for Next Step Program 

There will be an additional $100.00 required for a background check before license is issued and a $50.00 fee for first year membership.  Cost of program is subject to change without notice due to occasional increase in material costs through NCCA

Please note:  Because of the varying state laws we advise each student to contact his/her particular State Licensing Office regarding licensing requirements for Ordained Christian Counselors.

NCCA Licensed counselors are free to counsel under 501c3 covering, this covering may be obtained individually, by the National Conservative Church (an NCCA sister organization) or by your local church.

Mal-practice insurance is highly recommended and may be obtained through The American Professional Agency.  For application call 631-691-6400 or 800-421-6694.  You will apply under Clergy and Pastoral Counselor title.

APS’s require counselor’s report with each of the twenty-five (25) APS required in programs.

You are asked to complete at least one (1) course every two months.  If more time is needed for completion please contact your Clinical Supervisor.  Please note: Students who become inactive or do not complete their programs within the expected and reasonable time frame will be subject to any and all changes made in the program by NCCA or FBCS and a reinstatement fee of $25 will be charged.

There is a $20 fee for all retesting.

NCCA fees are subject to change without notice.

Refund Policy for  the Next Step Program 

1.      If a student withdraws from school or drops a class in writing within thirty (30) days of date of registration for a course, FBCS will refund all tuition charges. If a clinical student has had an APS done, that fee will be deducted from tuition return.
