摘要
In career guidance training participants are given time and space in order to gather knowledge of current interest. Career-relevant and other issues are re-contextualized by experiences participants have acquired during the course period. New interpretations are frequently co-created in a student group. A student should be in the position of being the best expert to reach further conclusions and solutions. Though changes in the students' orientation are often discovered during the course process, the effects of counselling are not usually communicable in terms of measurable "effectivity". The kind of discourse that objectifies the students and reduces the outcomes of counselling to quantitative indicators is to be avoided. It would appear that a new language is needed which is transparent and accessible to various stakeholders in education and counselling. © 1998 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
