- Individual will call (403.265.4980) Calgary Counselling Centre
and speak with Education and Training Program Leader who will:
- Gather and record information
regarding the individual and the educational
opportunity they are seeking at the agency.
- Will offer a tour and information session
to the interested party:
Tour provides the person with a chance to become
familiar with Calgary Counselling Centre prior
to formally engaging in the application process.
- If after the tour, the person wishes to pursue
the application process, the Education and Training
Program Leader will provide them with an application packet.
- If it is decided that it would be appropriate for
the interested party to have an interview without
having a tour, arrangements will be made between the
Education and Training Program Leader and the individual.
- Individual will complete the documentation requested in the
application packet and forward this information to the
Education and Training Program Leader.
- Upon receipt of the documentation requested
in the application packet the Education and Training
Program Leader will arrange an interview for the applicant
with an appropriate individual from the agency.
- Following the interview a consultation will take
place between the interviewer and the Education and
Training Program Leader and a decision will be reached
regarding the application. If further information is desired,
a second interview may be requested. However, the norm would
be for the person to be advised by telephone regarding
their acceptance by the agency within a few days of their interview.
- A formal letter of acceptance will be forwarded to the
individual and will include their start date and other relevant
information.
Individuals interested in pursuing a residency at the
Calgary Counselling Centre will follow the same procedure
as defined for university students.
The supporting documentation required for a residency
application is outlined in the application packet.
Once this documentation is received, agency staff will
review the applicant’s documentation and an
interview will be arranged.
Following this interview, applicants will be notified
regarding their application.
All admission decisions are final.
Each year we receive a large number of applications
for a limited number of spaces in our program.
Consequently, many suitable applicants are not selected
for admission. At times, applicants may be placed on a wait list.
Applicants who have been placed on the wait list will be notified
of their status and will be advised of the time of the next
available opening .
If applicants have additional questions not covered
in this information, please call the Education and Training
Program Leader at (403)265-4980.
