The Ohio School Counselor Evaluation
System (OSCES) Evaluator Training will
prepare an evaluator of school
counselors, as defined by the role you
serve in a Local Educational Agency (LEA),
for effective, high-quality and consistent
school counselor evaluation using the
Evaluation Framework for School
Counselors as adopted by the State
Board of Education in April 2016
(updated December 2022). To become a
certificated evaluator of school
counselors in the State of Ohio, an
individual must successfully complete a
one-day training delivered by an OSCES
state trainer. Upon successful completion
of the training, a certificate of completion
will be issued for verification. The
training will provide better understanding
of the OSCES Framework and Model and
allow practice of skills and sharing of
resources and best practices in educator
evaluation. This one-day session is
required for all evaluators of school
counselors. It is highly recommended
that the evaluator and school
counselor(s) attend this session together.
