In July I became Program Coordinator of the Day Treatment Program.For 11 years,
I was a Recreation Therapist at the Broome County Mental HealthDay Treatment
Program in Binghamton, NY. Though my current position calls for a Masters Degree,
being enrolled in Marywood University's MSW program was accepted given my experience.
(Since Recreation Therapists do alot more than Recreation Therapy.)I wanted to
get interns from SUNY Brockport, but their Chairman told me that I would havebe
certified to be able to do this. In addition, my Program Manager feels that being
aCertified Recreation Therapist might reduce or eliminate my need (from the corporate
prospective)to attain the MSW. WHAT ARE THE QUALIFICATIONS FOR CERTIFICATION
AND IF A TEST IS NESCESSARY,WHEN AND WHERE ARE THEY GIVEN?
