We are excited to launch registration for our 8th annual National School Counseling Leadership Conference (NSCLC)! Registration for NSCLC has sold out for 2023 and 2024, and we anticipate selling out again, so please register and book your accommodations early. We hope to see you and your school counseling leadership team in February 2025!

Purpose of this CONFERENCE

The goal of this unique conference is to address a critical gap in professional learning for administrators and other leaders who oversee school counseling programs at the school, district, region, and state levels. Ultimately, we seek to empower and equip decision-makers to hire, mentor, lead, evaluate, and support school counselors such that measurable student outcomes are at the core of all school counseling programs nationwide.

Join us to network with others in your position from across the nation and learn about the current roles, trends, and models of school counseling. After these three dynamic days, leave the conference equipped with fresh ideas, applicable resources, and the confidence that you can lead school counselors to implement cutting-edge, comprehensive school counseling programs for the benefit of all students!

 
 

Who Should Attend?

  • District-level leaders who support school counseling programs

  • School-level administrators

  • Department Chairs/Lead/Head school counselors

  • Leaders from state departments of education

  • State school counseling association leaders

  • County/regional education leaders

  • Graduate students in educational leadership, principal, and superintendent programs

*This conference is designed for leaders who support school counseling programs at the school, district, county, and state levels. It’s important that practicing school counselors who wish to attend this conference are aware that breakout sessions and keynotes will be geared toward leadership and systems more so than school counseling practice. We recommend that practitioners attend with their site leaders or district-level administrators.
