ACA Announces Counseling Delegation to China

ACA is sponsoring a People to People Citizen Ambassador Programs delegation to China from August 13-25, 2012 and invites professional counselors on a unique overseas cultural and professional exchange opportunity.

Founded in 1956 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, People to People Ambassadors Program has previously partnered with ACA in developing counseling delegations to Russia, Rwanda, South Africa, China, Tibet, India, and Brazil.

The August delegation to China will be led by Jane Goodman, Ph.D., a former president of the American Counseling Association and the National Career Development Association.

This delegation will seek to increase collaboration with Chinese professionals and organizations on topics of mutual interest in the counseling arena. This will be combined with cultural activities highlighting the sights and sounds of the country. Delegates will enjoy insider views of the counseling profession in China and experience the culture in ways that most travelers never do, from exploring small, local neighborhoods and marveling at the views from atop the Great Wall of China to observing professional counterparts in their element.

Program details and an application form are available by calling 877.787.2000 or emailing citizens@peopletopeople.com. A direct link to the planned itinerary can be found online at:www.peopletopeople.com/ACA. ACA does not subsidize PTP delegations; all travel costs are paid for by the delegates.

Please consider joining this exciting exchange!
