The Ronald H. Fredrickson Center for School Counseling Outcome Research & Evaluation
Professional development training, consultation, and intervention and program evaluation.
The Ronald H. Fredrickson Center for School Counseling Outcome Research & Evaluation is dedicated to improving educational opportunities and outcomes for all children by identifying and developing research-based and effective school counseling practices.
The Center for School Counseling Outcome Research & Evaluation (CSCORE) is committed to improving the practice of school counseling by generating, identifying, and disseminating research related to the field; providing evaluation and consultation to support best practices; developing interventions with demonstrated efficacy and positive outcomes; and building the capacity of school counselors.
CSCORE conducts and disseminates findings from research about career, social/emotional, and academic interventions; provides K–12 leaders and practitioners with information about data-based decision-making, evidence-based practices, and program evaluation; and provides international leadership in the measurement of the outcomes of school counseling interventions and programs.
