Districts and Universities ASCA National Model Implementation Portal

The newly redesigned ASCA National Model® portal, aligned with the fifth edition, is an online system enabling all schools in a district or state to store components of their ASCA National Model® plans. District designees can then review plans and provide feedback on progress toward implementation of a school counseling program based on the ASCA National Model® fifth edition. 

School counselor preparation programs may use the ASCA National Model® portal to support their students in ASCA National Model® training and implementation. Graduate students enrolled in school counselor preparation programs requiring portal use will upload their ASCA National Model® work, and school counselor educators can provide feedback on this work via the portal.

The portal includes the following components: 

  • School Counseling Data Priorities
  • Achievement Gap Plan and Data Report
  • ASCA Student Standards Delivery Plan
  • Lesson Plan and Data Report
  • Small-Group Plan and Data Report 
  • Annual Administrative Conference 
  • Use-of-Time-5-Day Calculator
  • Advisory Council 

For more information about the ASCA National Model®  portal or to get your district set up, contact Jen Walsh.
