As more ACA members and leaders are becoming more active advocates for the profession, it is essential that that we all do what we can to ensure that we are always well-prepared and confident in our abilities to speak about the profession. Often times, LPCs will be called upon to testify before a governmental entity on an issue involving the profession. Providing testimony should be viewed as a great honor and an opportunity to educate the public and our government about the counseling profession. But all too often, it’s seen as a very intimidating process. This session will focus on providing you the tools and techniques you will need in the hopes that your testimony will be a positive experience.
