Texas educator"Texas OnCourse provides a place for the new counselors to find new information and the seasoned counselors get a great refresher and possibly learn something new."
Jenifer Price College Counselor"As questions come up from students and parents or even other administrators, I have a go-to. That makes me look good – that I know where to go to find an answer if I don’t know it.”
Texas educator"This been the best - clear, concise, and interactive - professional training modules for school counselors I have experienced in my 13 years as a school counselor. I wish I would’ve had access to this format of information years ago!”
Holly Moore, District College Adviser"I'm able to learn more about things that I'm not so sure about, and I'm looking at things differently. Even [with] subject matter that I'm really comfortable with, Texas OnCourse has helped me go beyond the surface layer of learning."
