National Board for Certified Counselors

NBCC advances counseling as the premier certification body of the profession.
The National Board for Certified Counselors, Inc. and Affiliates (NBCC), an independent not-for-profit credentialing body for counselors, was incorporated in 1982 to establish and monitor a national certification system, to identify those counselors who have voluntarily sought and obtained certification, and to maintain a register of those counselors.

NBCC's certification program recognizes counselors who have met predetermined standards in their training, experience and performance on the National Counselor Examination for Licensure and Certification (NCE), the most portable credentialing examination in counseling. NBCC has 49,858 certified counselors. These counselors live and work in the U.S. and more than 40 countries. Our examinations are used by all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico to credential counselors on the state and territory level.
