Counselors who are performing EAP work focus on several interests including those of the client, the employer, and the referring EAP. An affiliate counselor needs to be knowledgeable on topics such as labor relations, disability, and FMLA, as well as management issues such as problem employees, incentives, and motivation. Presenters will address some of the standards in EAP work and various ways to teach students this information. An EAP model will be addressed as well as ways to incorporate this into the counseling curriculum.
