Hi, welcome to this episode of conversations about consultation.

In this episode we speak with Professor Bill Erchul from North Carolina state university.

Bill has had a 36 year career as a trainer of school psychologists in the states and has a strong research record in consultation including co-editing a volume with Susan Sheridan in relation to research in school consultation.

He has had a significant dedication to both science and practice within school psychology in the states and more widely.

It was a pleasure to speak with Bill and we hope you enjoy listening to this episode.
