Counselor Webinar Series
Advising the College-Bound Student-Athlete
3 Reasons why YOU need to sign up for this program NOW . . . .
Who Will Benefit?
* Well established counselors have lots of experience, but frequently a limited amount of training or expertise to effectively help athletes with their recruiting activities
* New counselors just entering the profession; likely have very little, or no formal education at all in advising athletes
* All other counselors, plus coaches and parents – If you have a sincere desire to help athletes but need training in the techniques, please join us.
Who Should Enroll?
* Counseling student-athletes is a niche market. There is a huge need and demand by athletes, but a very small supply of qualified counselors to serve them. This equates to significant revenue opportunities for counselors! Interested?
* You will have a more comprehensive set of counseling skills than those possessed by your peers.
* You may be able to help your student-athletes to be accepted to more colleges as well as receive more significant “financial packages” than if they were just applying in the status of a “student”.
Hot Topics Include:
* How to conduct a highly effective initial consultation with your athlete’s family
* The secrets to identifying the best “target schools” for your student-ATHLETE!
* The critical importance of proper “timing” and the Ivy League Academic Index for your high academic athletes
