- Summary:
-
Vocational guidance counselors face a number of concerns as they try to develop career guidance and counseling programs. Because of changes in the workplace as a result of high technology, phrases such as work readiness, career maturity, and career adaptability are essential to the understanding of where a person is in the career decision-making process. The counselor must learn how to identify and measure readiness to learn, readiness to work, and decision-making abilities, and to provide occupational information. The process is complicated by the changing workplace. Counselors must adjust to new demands to incorporate new activities, testing, and methods of reaching individuals in their already existing job responsibilities. They must be flexible, learn new skills, and work with professionals in the community. (Following a nine-page report, excerpts are provided from reports of programs developed by Texas, Maryland, and Pennsylvania to address the above concerns. A description of one statewide innovative endeavor, the Missouri Comprehensive Guidance Program Model, follows. Endeavors on a nationwide basis are discussed in terms of activities of the National Center for Research in Vocational Education, National Occupational Information Coordinating Committee, and the National Consortium of State Career Guidance Supervisors. Forty-three endnotes are appended.) (YLB)
