The Center for Excellence in School Counseling and Leadership (CESCaL)
The Center’s mission is to promote excellence in the field of school counseling and to assist school counselors, their site and central office administrators as they design, implement and evaluate their school counseling programs. CESCaL will provide
training by national leaders in school counseling, on-line support for creating school
counseling programs and consultation from state and national leaders in school counseling and administration with experience in implementing ASCA National Model® school counseling programs.
CESCaL’s goals are to:
- Assist school counselors and administrators as they seek to improve effective practice within the profession of school counseling
- Assist school counselors, graduate students and school counselor educators who are working to design, develop, implement, evaluate their school counseling program and activities and their implementation of the ASCA National Model.
- Provide opportunities for school counselors to create documents on-line, submit them for consultation and feedback, and to share them with others who are working towards the same goals (Create! Consult! Contribute!).
- Consult, train and assist leaders in school counseling and administration as they implement state school counseling guidelines, federal grants, state legislation (e.g. AB 1802) and the ASCA National Model®
- Through partnerships with school counselors and administrators, support school districts in the hiring and evaluating of school counselors by creating and sharing artifacts within their programs and activities that align with the ASCA National Model.
- Provide support and collaborative training opportunities for school counselor educators, administrative/leadership training programs and state department leaders in school counseling to discuss and problem solve critical training issues in the profession.
- Deepen understandings of the critical issues that impede or promote the operational efficiency, institutional legitimacy and political social capital within the profession of school counseling.
