The Canadian Research Institute for Counselling
Over two years ago, in December 2001, a new and exciting organization unlike any other existing organization stewarding the interests and development of an increasingly changing profession, entered the Canadian career counselling landscape. The efforts of CERIC – the Canadian Education and Research Institute for Counselling – are directed at increasing the economic and social wealth and productivity of Canadians through improved quality, effectiveness and accessibility of counselling programs, especially in the areas of career counselling and career education. Specifically, CERIC will encourage and provide education and research programs related to the development, analysis and assessment of the current counselling and career development theories and practices. CERIC will leverage private sector funding to facilitate and support the implementation of corporate partnerships which provide a non-government, non-partisan umbrella under which all segments of the career counselling field can flourish in Canada.
