practice. The Center provides national leadership in the measurement
and evaluation of the outcomes of school counseling interventions
and programs. In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Center
helps K-12 leaders and practitioners use research findings
and methods to improve school counseling practices by enabling
them to set standards, establish benchmarks, implement evidence-based
interventions, measure student learning outcomes, and evaluate
program effectiveness.
