Welcome Wisconsin area college counselors! The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse is excited to host the 2026 Wisconsin Area College Counseling Conference (WACCC) this year in La Crosse!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Wisconsin Area College Counseling Conference (formerly known as the Wisconsin Association of Professional Counselors in Higher Education)<\/em>\u00a0started as an informal annual gathering of counselors from universities, colleges, and technical colleges throughout Wisconsin. The initial goal was to provide opportunities for counselors to discuss topics of mutual concern, network, and share experiences.<\/p>\n

The conference has always had a wellness focus, although over the years has become more formal with funding for keynote speakers, chances for more structured presentations, Continuing Education Units (CEUs), and numerous opportunities to connect with other campus mental health providers.<\/p>\n

The conference typically occurs in late April and is coordinated by a different UW university each year. The funding for the keynote speakers comes from the Universities of Wisconsin and efforts are made to keep the registration costs economical.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Registration for this event is currently closed.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t
