NACCAP is pleased to offer regular webinars and professional development opportunities on topics of interest to high school counseling, enrollment and admissions professionals.
Presenter: Dr. Walt Mueller, Center for Parent/Youth Understanding
With culture catechizing our kids 24/7, we must endeavor to offer our students’ knowledge and practice in how to think critically and Christianly about everything they encounter in today’s world. In this webinar, Walt will walk you through understanding the need for wisdom and discernment, how to seize the opportunities to teach wisdom and discernment in the Christian school, along with several time-tested strategies and tools that can be used to nurture wisdom and biblically-informed discernment in the school and home.
Presenter: Keri Boer, Director of College Guidance, Asheville Christian Academy
This session will present a comprehensive example of how to assist rising seniors with college and career decision-making, focusing on the tasks related to the college application process. While this format is a week-long summer experience, this model can be adapted to fit within the classroom during the school year.
Presenter: Tami Peterson, Founder & CEO, Life Architects
In the 21st century, we feel the changing times and technologies, but we know one thing will never change: God's purpose for humanity! This webinar will be an interactive exploration of how school counselors can approach post-secondary planning and build a better understanding of each student's unique design. We will discuss how each student is created in the image of God and has a unique calling. We will explore how to engage with students and families to build a school culture where post-secondary planning is more than just finding the next step after graduation; it is also about creating pathways to explore work to the glory of God.
