Most campuses have counseling center websites, but few of these sites are as helpful as they should be. This session is designed to help you develop a college counseling center website that is relevant and useful to your students and their parents as well as to staff and faculty. You’ll learn to improve your website with little cost and effort by surveying your community, simplifying design, and adding specialized content.

The presentation will focus on both small schools with limited budgets and larger schools with more resources and time to develop a web presence.

Knowledge benefits for you:
• Understand the essential elements every college counseling website should have
• Learn affordable and effective ways to improve your website by working with your campus IT and publications departments or by developing a stand-alone student resource
• Know the ethical codes that govern on-line counseling and the pros and cons of offering an anonymous question-and-answer page
• Understand the benefits and limits of linking to various peer support sites
• Discover creative ways to market your website to the college community to increase the number of visits
• Learn simple, cost-free website links you can use to add to the functionally of even the most comprehensive counseling website
• Find out how you can conduct a needs assessment and the importance of having a robust, current, and relevant counseling center website

Who can benefit from this program:
• Counseling center directors, assistant directors, and training directors
• Counseling center staff
• University marketing and public relations departments
