The NCTSC trainings are designed to help school counselors connect to school reform, and become an integral part in creating an equitable education system. The training helps practicing school counselors acquire and apply skills in leadership, advocacy, teaming and collaboration, and use of data, all of which are directed toward systemic change designed to provide access and equity for all groups of students. Participants develop an action plan that they will implement in their building or district.
Since it is known that school administrators and counselors need to work closely together to make this happen, it is recommended that school principals attend the first half-day of the training and return on the last day to hear the action plan that the counselors have developed.
The NCTSC professional development workshop series focuses on the following themes:
1) Working as leaders to promote access & equity for all groups of students;
2) Using data to change policy & practice;
3) Advocating for systemic change;
4) Taking action to help all groups of students meet high standards; and,
5) Using results to drive next steps.
