Through career guidance and new information, adults are offered support in identifying the competences, which they have acquired through education, work, and leisure and in further developing these with regard to new career opportunities or motivating them to explore completely different career fields. Developing the ability to make decisions and implement them is also an important part.
The guidance takes into account important societal issues affecting the adult’s career choices and contributes to a socially equal and sustainable society. In the societal context in which the adults live, support is given to explore and clarify their interests and values, in order to see themselves in a new light and thus challenge their own self-image.
High quality career guidance is neutral and not tied to institutions or sectors, puts the individual at the centre and is accessible to all. Career guidance is offered by a competent counsellor with relevant skills and ethical awareness. Career guidance can take place
in communities, e.g. in workplaces and educational institutions.
