THE CAREER CONSULTANT'S PROFILE

Abstract

To advise is to provide the student the opportunity to explore, discover and to clarify the best ways to live his own life, to have a happy existence. Initially, the scope of the councilors has been identified as a reduced one compared to psychotherapy, then the purpose of the two activities to dissociate from a theoretical point of view. Between the two terms there is a significant difference: counseling is a proactive action, while psychotherapy is a postfactum intervention (remedial action, the therapy). Guidance and counselling means all actions performed by optional advisory and training methods, the general and special conditions, subordinated to, from the point of view of the Content, Size of process-orientated technology/education, and from the perspective of the activity of psycho-pedagogical assistance methodological and social teachers, students and parents, designed at the level of the education system, with a view to the correct academic and career options. Guidance and counselling means all actions performed by optional advisory and training methods, the general and special conditions, subordinated to, from the point of view of the content, size of process-orientated technology/education, and from the perspective of the activity of assistance psycho-pedagogical methodological and social teachers, students and parents, designed at the level of the education system, with a view to the correct academic and career options. In Romania, there is still a well-defined ethical framework at the legislative level, Advisor profession ‘borrowing’ a number of ethical rules from psychologists, sociologists, pedagogues. We expect that in the not too distant future, together with the adjustment of the legal framework concerning the advice, to be completed and such professional code, as a sign that the profession has moved beyond the Advisor to the time of interim and won a tight space defined in the professional Romanian.
