A new program designed to be the “next phase” in professional development for career/employment counsellors, career practitioners and/or practitioners in related fields. Offered in partnership between Life Strategies Ltd. and Access Institute of Training and Development (A division of Access Employment Services Ltd.), our goal is to serve the needs of practicing professionals who require CEU’s (Continuing Education Units) to keep their status current in their professional associations or who wish to enhance their present skills.
Conestoga College and Contact Point are jointly launching in 2003 four New Advanced Online Courses for Career Development Practitioners. These courses will include online content, online individual and group exchange, plus a teleconferencing component.

The reasons for the under-representation of women are complex, but one strong factor is that young women lack the necessary role models and the encouragement to pursue the training required.

Transference and countertransference are natural projective behaviors and are to be expected in the counselling relationship. “Transference” refers to certain unconsciously redirected feelings, fears, or emotions from a client towards the counsellor that actually stems from past feelings and interactions with others and is transferred into the current counselling relationship. “Countertransference” refers to the projecting of a counsellor’s experiences, values and repressed emotions that are awakened by identification with the client’s experiences, feelings and situation that affect the dynamics of a counselling relationship.

For many years most organizations operated without due regard for their employees career development. Any career development activity financed or administered by the organization was relegated to a reactive response to layoffs and or a few workshops here and there.

Now a significant global business, the Career Services industry has been quietly transforming over three decades as workplace career issues have swung the vine through workforce reduction, retention, work-life balance and leadership credibility.
