Synopsis

The second edition of this textbook focuses primarily on the practice of career counseling by describing some of the basic techniques and resources that can be used to support the theories of career choice and development.  The authors present information and a structure that is robust and, as such, can be widely applied.  They also address some emerging issues such as Web-based counseling and provide case studies throughout the text.  A belief in quality career counseling is at the forefront of this book, as well as the exploration of various myths and emerging trends.  Career counseling is defined and the competencies that counselors need to pursue as part of their training agenda are outlined.  As a supplement, the text includes the NCDA guidelines for competency standards and ethical guidelines as appendicies at the back of the book.
