Eric Sparks will deliver a keynote address on Friday, November 8th, at the NSCA School Counselor Academy.  Eric is Assistant Director for the American School Counselor Association.  In this role he has facilitated the development of the 3rd and 4th Editions of the ASCA National Model: A Framework for School Counseling Programs.  Who better to learn from about what is new in the recently released 4th Edition of the ASCA National Model than Eric Sparks!

Thursday's featured presenters will be Arond Schonberg and Keith Fulthorp.  Arond and Keith have presented on Solution Focused Brief Counseling all across the country including being frequent presenters at the American School Counselor Association National Conference.  Arond and Keith are known for an entertaining and engaging delivery as well as their knowledge and practical application of Solution Focused Techniques.   Arond and Keith presented at the NSCA School Counselor Academy in 2009 receiving rave reviews from attendees.  Every year someone asks NSCA: when are you going to have Arond and Keith back?  The answer is Thursday, November 7th, when they will deliver two presentations, one geared towards elementary counselors and one geared toward middle/high school counselors.  Arond and Keith will also present on advanced Solution Focus Brief Counseling techniques on Friday.
