ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ is growing its graduate program opportunities in Alamance County and in Charlotte in response to national trends and demand, including the expansion of its law, physician assistant and business analytics programs and a new degree in clinical mental health counseling.

ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ’s Charlotte campus hosted a College Coffee for prospective students and clinical supervisors highlighting the integration of mental and physical healthcare.

The new program, at ÂÒÂ×ÊÓƵ’s main campus and Charlotte national campus, will work to prepare competent, compassionate and ethical counselors committed to promoting mental wellness and addressing an urgent need for counselors.
