ADRIAN, Mich. – Adrian College is hosting a Michigan high school guidance counselor workshop on Wednesday, Sept. 30. The workshop will focus on training for reporters of child abuse.

In addition, participants will receive information from higher education professionals about financial aid, admissions and recruiting practices.

Benefits of the workshop include SB-CEU Credit; staying current on Child Protection Laws; developing policies and practices in place in time of need; and gaining new knowledge of higher education practices.

All participants will also receive a certificate of completion. The cost of the workshop is $25.00 per counselor or $75.00 for four or more counselors from the same school. All interested parties should contact Melissa Thompson at 800-877-2246 or via e-mail at mthompson@adrian.edu.
