EDUC C35 - Introduction to Professional School Counseling

Fall. (3). Shillingford.

This course examines the planning, development, implementation and evaluation of comprehensive developmental guidance and counseling programs using a balanced program approach. The balanced programming approach addresses both the developmental needs of students and simultaneously incorporates mechanisms of support for those pupils who are more susceptible to arrested development. The course addresses the specific role function of school counselors, historical and philosophical underpinnings, as well as strategies for enhancing the academic, career and personal-social needs of children.
