Overview

Program Overview

Designed for teachers and nonteachers, the Education - Counselling School Counselling at University of Wisconsin-Superior offers graduate students advanced professional training in the field of counseling at the school or district level and academically prepares them for the Wisconsin and/or Minnesota school counseling licensure exam(s). A teaching license is not required for admission.

As part of the curriculum, you will refine your counseling acumen in three major areas: the prevention of personal and interpersonal problems, fostering optimal human development, and remediating existing social-emotional-developmental concerns among school-age children.
