ABSTRACT
The study was an assessment of in-service training for school counsellors in Sagnarigu District. A mixed method design was used in the study. A population of sixteen people (Counsellors and Headmasters) was involved. Interview guide and questionnaire were the instruments for collecting data. School counsellors and Head Masters responded to the questionnaires while key informants were interviewed. The researcher personally administered the questionnaires and conducted the interviews. The study revealed that: counselors had inadequate access to in-service training in the District, the few organized in-service training did not address the needs of counselors, inadequate resources affected the frequency and quality of in-service training for school counsellors, and that in-service trainings, when organized, were less involving and lecture based. Following these findings it was recommended, among others, that; the Ghana Education Service should make Staff development an on-going process; and that the district directorate in collaboration with the regional directorate should collaborate with the NGOs within the district who are interested in matters of in-service training for school counsellors.
