2025 Hawai‘i Counseling & Advising (HICA) Convening – Registration is Open

Hawai’i P-20 Partnerships for Education is pleased to announce the 5th annual statewide Hawai‘i Counseling & Advising (HICA) Convening, scheduled for Tuesday, March 11, 2025. This one-day event will be held at the Ala Moana Hotel in Honolulu. Registration is now open.

We welcome our Hawai’i State Department of Education (HIDOE), University of Hawai’i (UH), and community partners from across the state to join us in learning strategies that can enhance existing college and career counseling and advising practices within our K-12 and post-secondary education systems.

Event Details: 

Presentations and learning discussions will focus on three topic areas:

  • Supporting student transitions from high school to postsecondary pathways
  • Comprehensive career and college counseling and advising practices
  • Career readiness programming and workforce preparedness

Registration Details:

  • HICA is available at no cost to attendees and is a great opportunity to connect with and learn from other educators who are striving to improve career and college student outcomes.
  • Priority is given to HIDOE and UH employees and schools/campuses are encouraged to coordinate teams of no more than five people to participate.
  • A continental breakfast and lunch will be provided to all registered participants.
  • Travel accommodations are limited for neighbor island attendees, so early registration is recommended. Once registered, Hawaiʻi P-20 will contact attendees directly to coordinate travel arrangements.
