Professional School Counselor competencies
ASCA has just posted access to a draft set of Professional School Counselor competencies
on the ASCA website home page, www.schoolcounselor.org.
I encourage each of you to review and provide feedback during the public comment period. Public comment ends November 30.
These competencies focus on the skills school counselors need to establish, maintain and enhance a comprehensive school counseling program.
The identified competencies from our own professional organization has potential to be used for advocacy purposes, used when updating job descriptions, referred to when discussing school counselors, used by graduate programs in School Counseling and certification/endorsements for Professional School Counseling.
