School counselors and education experts from across New York will converge on Drumlins Country Club on Friday, Jan. 28 for “Counseling Update 2005.” The conference, geared toward education professionals, is open to anyone with a stake in issues affecting school-age children and young adults. The program, co-sponsored by a number of local, state and Syracuse University-based organizations, runs from 8:00 a.m.-2:30 p.m.

Registration fees range from $70-$95 and are payable by check to The Study Council, 250 Huntington Hall, Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY 13244. The registration deadline is Jan. 26. For more information and details about a special student fee, call (315) 443-4696.

The theme of this year’s update is “educating the whole counselor-rookie to veteran.” Concurrent sessions will cover a range of topical issues facing young people today, including ADD/ADHD, bullying, eating disorders, and anxiety and depression.

The opening and closing sessions will focus on the importance of networking and sharing lessons learned from experience. On the subject of networking, Janna Scarborough from the SU School of Education’s Counseling and Human Services department will moderate a session called “Sharing Resources, A True Value.”Says Scarborough, “In this session, we’ll take the opportunity to tap into the experiences, knowledge, and creativity of our participants.
