The Recognized ASCA Model Program® (RAMP®) recognizes schools committed to delivering school counseling programs aligned with the ASCA National Model® framework. The RAMP® designation demonstrates to administrators, school boards, families and the community at large that the schools are committed to supporting the mission of the school and district. To date, 5 schools in Utah, and more than 1,600 schools nationwide have earned the RAMP® designation. View current RAMP® schools here.

The RAMP® application process is the culmination of successfully implementing the ASCA National Model® framework to show evidence of direct and indirect services to students, program planning and improved student outcomes as a result of the school counseling

program.

Schools considering seeking the RAMP® designation are encouraged to review the program assessment tool to determine whether your school counseling program is aligned with the ASCA National Model® and to determine when to apply. Schools will need at least one entire academic year to collect the data and information needed to fulfill the RAMP® application requirements.

The RAMP® designation lasts for five years. Schools are encouraged to maintain their RAMP® status by submitting a successful application at the end of their fourth year (Re-RAMP®).
