Certification is granted to those consultants and counselors who meet rigorous application requirements including specialized training, significant professional experience, and involvement in professional activities and organizations. Reid has passed a board-certified examination, received professional references, and has pledged to adhere to stringent ethical practices.
CEP's are recertified every five years maintaining a standard of excellence that is determined by college/program/school visits, continuing education hours, and other professional endeavors. All applicants submit to a stringent peer review.
“Certified educational consultants and counselors are remarkable” noted Sobel. “This group of professionals have demonstrated a high level of commitment to ongoing professional learning” she concluded.
The CEP Program began in 1994 under the sponsorship of the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA), an association representing experienced professionals in the field of college/educational/school/therapeutic program placements. “The CEP designation assures families that they are working with a qualified professional who is committed to maintaining the highest quality of service to their students,” said Mark Sklarow, Executive Director of IECA.
