The Value of Career Guidance in an Economic Crisis

Jyvaskyla_Press_Release.doc 42 KB 07.06

The IAEVG Executive Committee prepared a press release which was distributed to all delegates as well as the local media. The press release deals with the role of careers guidance in times of economic turbulence. The EC suggests that this is the sort of thing that could be used by IAEVG members in their home locations, to inform their bosses of part of the role of careers guidance, or with local, state, or national government personnel. This will be attached to the next newsletter, but the EC wanted the conference participants to have an advance copy of it.
