Not sure where to start?

Three questions. We'll point you at the right track.

Your progress, not your sessions

"How do I get clients?"

That's a great question — and it has its own home.

Client acquisition, pricing, and building your product belong in Track 3 — Practice Development, not in the platform training sessions. Book a Practice Strategy session when you're ready to dig in — we'll route you to the right Peer Mentor.

6-Steps To Better Practice Management


Onboarding designed for busy professionals

CounselMore respects your time and the way you already run your practice. The platform is flexible — built to fit your existing process, not replace it. Move through the seven steps using self-guided videos and articles, book live sessions with our Peer Mentors and Tech Mentors, or do both in the order that works for you. Pause, implement, come back when you're ready.


New to educational consulting?

CounselMore is the fastest way to get a real system in place. The college list and application tracking tools become indispensable within your first week. The bonus most new counselors don't expect: in your live sessions, our Peer Mentors walk you through not just how the platform works, but why they make the choices they make in their own practices. That's professional mentorship layered on top of training — and it's the part most new IECs say accelerated their first year.


Experienced counselor?

You'll get up and running quickly, and you'll be pleasantly surprised by how present our team is once you're in. The people behind the software actually care about your practice — when you need help, you get help. If you're transitioning from another platform, our migration experts will populate your account for you so change management stays manageable. Your process, your structure, your client history — preserved.


Transitioning a team?

Multi-counselor practices get hands-on support: our trainers work directly with your counselors, and our developers help connect the tools you already use. We meet your team where they are and build adoption in stages — core staff first, expanding as confidence grows.


Choose your path

  • Quick 15-minute tech connection sessions (Calendly, Google Drive, Stripe)
  • Longer-form Peer Mentor sessions, 1:1 or cohort-based
  • Self-guided videos and step-by-step articles for every step
  • Ongoing community — Wednesday College Knowledge workgroup, Friday Study Hall


Take every session, take none, or mix and match. The steps are designed so you can pause and implement at every stage — your account grows up alongside your practice. Big Practice? Big Plans? Yes we support large teams and deep technology infrastructure too. Questions here
