[quote=Anonymous]I'm both an IEC and a school based counselor. Certificates aren't super helpful if you already have field experience but doing a reading season is a fantastic lesson. I would highly suggest joining IECA or NACAC. NACAC has amazing resources and annual conferences where you can attend informative presentations and network with other IECs and admissions officers. College advising is a luxury for sure, but I specialize in financial advising and optimizing merit and I can tell you that most of my families save far more than they spend on my services. Consider how many parents pay for "senior photos" despite the fact that we all have cameras in our phones? Relatedly, if you click on a thread titled "Becoming a Private College Admissions Counselor" just to trounce on the industry and announce how you did it on your own, you clearly have more free time than the parents who elect to seek help.
