Call for Presenters

Submit your proposal for the CSCA Conference!​

The Colorado School Counselor Association is soliciting proposals for presentations promoting evidence-based programs in the domains of academic achievement, emotional growth, social development, career exploration, and post secondary planning. Presentations showcase best practices, current research, or skills of value to counselors, pre-K to postsecondary, as well as district personnel, graduate students and counselor educators.

Thanks for joining us for the 2023 Lone Star State School Counselor Association Conference!​

We hope to see you next year!

THIS PORTAL IS NOW CLOSED.

The deadline for submissions has passed.

DECISION PROCESS

We appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge and experience with school counselors from around the state! 

Please note, all sessions are either 60 or 90 minutes in length. You may designate which one you prefer in the form below.

Due to the large number of sessions offered at the conference, there is little flexibility in scheduling sessions. Please be prepared to present on either October 10th or 11th.

Conference attendees are interested in leaving the conference with increased knowledge and takeaways to practice in their school setting immediately. Attendees are interested in interactive sessions that allow them to participate and stay engaged.

Proposals of a political, marketing or for-profit nature will NOT be accepted.
