OECD definition

Career guidance refers to services and activities intended to assist individuals, of any age and at any point throughout their lives, to make educational, training and occupational choices and to manage their careers…The activities may take place on an individual or group basis, and may be face-to-face or at a distance (including help lines and web-based services). (OECD, 2004)

In conclusion

• Career guidance serves individual, organisational and national policy goals.

• In most countries its existence is strongly dependent on public funding.

• This requires that we are able to engage with policy makers positively and on their terms.

• There is a good evidence base that suggests that career guidance is effective, that it can have an impact on policy goals and that it can have an impact on economic policy.

• Career guidance’s capacity to increase human capital and social capital and smooth transitions are key to its economic impact.
