Senator Anitere Flores R-37, Miami (305) Senate Fiscal Policy Chair Senator Nancy Detert R-28, Sarasota (941) Senate Bill Sponsor. We need to recognize her and thank her for the support of School Counselors.

Talking Points for Florida School Counselors Association Bill O Requires that school counselors spend a minimum of 80 percent of their contractual time to delivery of services to students as outlined by the American School Counselor Association. O Delivery of services include direct services provided to students, parents and school staff. O Direct Services may include: O School counseling core curriculum O Individual student planning O Responsive services O Indirect services

Talking Points O Certified school counselors shall have a minimum of a Master’s Degree in School Counseling. O Certified school counselors shall have the appropriate certification as determined by the Florida Department of Education. O 194 schools in Florida have no school counselors. Encourage support that school counselors be employed in every school.

Talking Points O Certified school counselors shall have 60 clock hours or a three credit course in College and Career Readiness (CCR) required for re-certification. This would include the following areas of study for CCR programs at the elementary, middle and high school levels: O developing a college-going culture O academic advising for rigorous coursework O financial aid advising O financial literacy O college applications and enrollment O strategies for Senior graduates’ summer transition to college matriculation O strategies for FAFSA completion O family CCR advising O postsecondary opportunities O development of work-ready skills

Talking Points O Rationale for CCR requirement: State and national workforce projections predict that over 60 percent of Florida jobs will require some form of postsecondary education or training by the year 2020, yet currently, only 38 percent of working-age Floridians hold an associate’s degree or higher. O A small sampling of current school counselors from a survey administered in the spring 2015 indicated 67 percent of these school counselors have been working in the field six or more years.

Talking Points O Further responses included: O 63% have one or no career readiness course; but with six or more years working in the field and out from graduate work, course work in this subject area has expanded and changed significantly. O 47% have no college readiness course; and O 88% would you participate if available, in a comprehensive CCR training program.
