About the Book

The Program Development and Accountability Model as presented here is a must

read for Graduate Students in Counseling programs, Guidance Department

Managers and Counselors who are now working at a Middle School, High School or

a Community College.

This How To Manual clearly describes a Comprehensive Accountability System that

will assess/ identify student/parent needs and evaluate Counselors efforts in the

Educational, Career and Social/Personal Domains.

I highly recommend this book for those professionals who feel a need to implement

this excellent "Needs Based" Accountability System.

The Counseling Program Development and Accountability Model requires that student and staff needs be identified, ranked and assigned to Program Managers/Counselors. The Managers, along with Counselors, are then responsible for designing, completing and evaluating Work Plan results/outcomes. This Counselor Program Development and Accountability Model is an invaluable text for Administrators, Counseling support personnel and Counseling staff. The Model may be used in a Middle School, High School, Community College or by a University Professor who teaches graduate students working on their Masters Degree in Counseling.
