all school counselors in training and in practice with the aim to

fundamental understanding of the terminology, laws, principles,
collaboration, assessment measures, and psycho-social, diversity
issues associated with special education. This text continues in
the trend of providing sound, evidenced-based knowledge with
practical case examples and guided exercises, making the material
'come alive' and fostering critical thinking. Working with Students

Counseling and Professional Identity Series, which targets specific
competencies identified by CACREP (Council for Accreditation of
Counseling and Related Programs).
