what are the duties of each and requirements

Best answer:

Answer by semiserene
A counselor helps kids choose classes, prepare themselves academically for college, gets all their paperwork in order, etc. He/she doesn’t really “counsel.” It’s much more about record-keeping and keeping kids on track academically.

A school psychologist actually does some counseling and a lot of testing to see whether kids qualify for special programs.

The education and training requirements for each will vary state to state. You can find more information by going online and looking it up for the state you’re interested in.
