Session 25: Transformed School Counselors Fostering College Readiness

Printer-friendly version

A survey of practicing school counselors in Oregon revealed their preparation and training for career and college counseling. The results presented here include a comparison of practitioners who graduated from a TSC-informed training program with those who graduated with traditional school counseling training. Participants will have an opportunity to reflect on their own training processes and engage in small-group discussions of best practices in creating college-going cultures.
