The curriculum is not adequate to prepare you for the NCE let alone the real world. If you want to be a licensed mental health professional do yourself a favor and enroll in an appropriate professional counseling (CACREP accredited preferably) or clinical social work program designed for licensure in your state. The other option would be to enroll in an APA accredited psychology doctoral program.
I kind of figured as much. What I was hoping was that I could find a program that would accept a bunch of the credits from the Walden General Psych toward a licensable degree (say MFT or LPC). The Walden Tempo General program is so inexpensive that it seems like one would save a bundle if this were possible. Alas, it appears it's not to be.
