An annual project involving students and faculty in a collaborative, 6-month planning process that culminates in a half-day program with both didactic and experiential components is presented as a model for creating powerful learning experiences external to the classroom. This article examines the CACREP (The 2001 Standards of the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs) standards relating to issues of curricular and cocurricular experiences, as well as requirements for preparation in gender issues, specifically women's issues. Next, a description of the Women's History Month Event, including its evolution, planning, implementation, evaluation, outcomes, and benefits, is presented. Specific information on program topics and the relevance of these topics to gender issues in counseling are described. Suggestions for ways this program could be replicated in other counseling training programs, with similar benefits, and how the process could be applied to other populations and issues are discussed.
