CSC – Canadian School Counselling
The Manitoba Journal of Counselling has changed!!!
The Manitoba School Counsellors’ Association has decided to make some changes to the journal. We have elected to change the name of the Journal to Canadian School Counselling in an effort to widen our readership and to hopefully receive more paper submissions. We have created an editorial board and a list of reviewers to assist with the publication of articles. The review process will include 2-3 blind peer reviews and authors will be asked to submit papers electronically to the editor, Jan Stewart, using the submission guidelines.
As a transition year, we hope to publish two traditional journals, in print form, and to include newsletter items and current events on a continuing basis on our website. The two print journals will be the February 2010 issue and the May 2010 issue. The summer journal and the fall journal will not be mailed this year and articles received during this period will be published online on the MSCA site.
