2022 Prospective Student Webinar

Join the Texas Society of Genetic Counselors for a Webinar about the genetic counseling profession!

Genetic counselors are professionals who have specialized education in genetics and counseling to provide personalized help patients may need as they make decisions about their genetic health. Today, there are more than 5,000 certified genetic counselors.

Genetic counselors have advanced training in medical genetics and counseling to interpret genetic test results, and to guide and support patients seeking more information about such things as:

  • How inherited diseases and conditions might affect them or their families.

  • How family and medical histories may impact the chance of disease occurrence or recurrence.

  • Which genetic tests may or may not be right for them, and what those tests may or may not tell.

  • How to make the most informed choices about healthcare conditions.

Hear about the profession, job opportunities available to genetic counselors, and how to become a genetic counselor. A panel of genetic counselors will answer your questions during a Q&A portion.

Webinar attendees will be entered into a raffle to win one of two $25 Amazon gift cards!
