Euroguidance Cross Border Seminar 2023 in Dresden

“Working as a guidance counsellor in a changing world – (do) we have what it takes?”

The National Euroguidance Centre in Germany, the Federal Employment Agency, together with the Euroguidance Centres from Austria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Latvia, Poland, Portugal, Serbia, Slovakia and Slovenia, organised this year's Euroguidance Cross Border Seminar for guidance practitioners, which took place in Dresden from 23 to 24 May.

The Cross Border Seminar is an event organised by guidance practitioners for guidance practitioners and aims at networking and exchanging experiences between educational and vocational guidance practitioners from Europe. During the two-day seminar, experts led thematic workshops on current European guidance topics and guidance methods of the different countries and present examples of good practice. About 80 - 90 counsellors and Euroguidance staff from all over Europe take part in the event.

During the two days, the participants discussed how the demographic, digital and ecological structural change in education, occupation and employment affects the work of career counsellors and which knowledge and competences counsellors will need in the future to be able to give their clients the best possible orientation and decision-making support in their career planning.
