RESOURCES
- ASCA U Flash: Members of ASCA have access to short Professional Development Videos (4-8 mins)
- Registration is now open for the 2023 ASCA National Conference.
Apply to be a 2023 ASCA Conference Ambassador. Each year, an outstanding group of school counselors and school counseling students help ensure an exceptional ASCA Annual Conference experience for attendees, while also getting an insider’s view of the event. The ASCA Annual Conference Ambassador Program trains an enthusiastic group of volunteers to serve as room monitors, guides and helpers, bookstore attendants and much more. And, perhaps best of all, ASCA covers the cost of ambassadors’ registration and hotel. Do you have something special to offer conference attendees? Apply today for the ambassador program. (Be sure to have your resume and letter of recommendation ready for upload.) The deadline to apply is March 15.
If you’re chosen as an ambassador, you’ll be trained onsite immediately preceding the conference to ensure you’re ready to go. Your commitment includes:
- Arrive in Atlanta on Thursday, July 13; depart after 2 p.m. on Tuesday, July 18
- Attend training Thursday evening, July 13
