Description

Unit 8 – Children, Adolescents, and Adults

Introduction

This unit examines the achievement gap and the role of career counseling at all ages. This course is required for several specializations; however, all of you will work with children and adolescents at some point in your career. If you work in schools you will help prepare young people for college or the work force, and those of you in other specializations will collaborate with schools. This unit will help give school counselors a better understanding of parents who are coping with career issues and how this impacts the student. This cross section of specializations makes it a unique and beneficial experience for all in this course. Children Adolescents and Adults
