The Counseling Department at West Los Angeles College
assists students in making decisions regarding educational,
career, and personal concerns. Counseling is available
for educational, transfer and career exploration. These
services are provided for professional counselors through
individual counseling, workshops and referrals to resources
on and off campus.
The primary goal of the Counseling Center is to provide
opportunities for students to clarify their values and
goals, to make decisions, to develop self-confidence,
self-direction and self-esteem.
An academic counseling session begins with educational
goal-setting, exploring education options and opportunities,
evaluating the student’s educational background,
and providing the student with clear, concise, up-to-date
educational information. Counselors can assist individuals
to assess their interests, strengths, abilities, and
values; to set goals; to make plans to accomplish those
goals; and to address personal problems or barriers
that impede plans to fulfilling those educational goals.
A counseling session will also assist individuals in
selecting of appropriate programs of study relative
to their chosen objectives. Individual student/counselor
conferences are available by appointment. Counseling
is available on a walk-in basis during registration
only.
Entering (first year) students are encouraged to enroll
in Personal Development courses (PD 4, 5, 8, 15, or
17). These courses are designed to help students become
better acquainted with the educational opportunities
at West Los Angeles College, and will assist students
in developing programs of study that will help them
attain their educational goals.
During the Summer, the Counseling Center is open 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Monday through Thursday. The Department will be open on Fridays during the Fall and Spring sessions.
The Counseling Center is
located in the Student Entry Center, Bldg. A-13. |
