P-12 College, Career, and Life Preparedness

Catalog description

This course will help School Counselors more fully understand Career and College Development, which is one of the three domains of School Counseling, intertwined with the other two, Academic and Dispositions and Behavioral Domains. Career development begins early, encouraging youth to consider their future, based on numerous considerations, including their unique backgrounds, interests, giftedness, goals, and opportunities. School counselors collaborate with students, families, school staff, communities, and colleges to assist youth into their future. College Access Professionals hold the unique position to assist youth by working solely with college placement, to establish collaboration with community-based and college-access organizations and professionals.
