Welcome to this course! 39 00:03:54.920 --> 00:04:01.160 Here you will meet many many interesting people and activities, and the first person whom I 40 00:04:01.160 --> 00:04:08.320 would like to introduce is doctor Raimo Vuorinen from University of Jyväskylä. 41 00:04:08.320 --> 00:04:15.000 Raimo, how do you comment my own definition of guidance are counselling? 42 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:20.160 In fact, the definition sort of illustrates the reason chains in the guidance 43 00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:23.540 paradigm that has taken place during the last 20 years. 44 00:04:23.540 --> 00:04:28.420 So, the shift has been moving from helping to enabling or a balance 45 00:04:28.420 --> 00:04:31.700 between these, helping and enabling, and the reason for this is 46 00:04:31.700 --> 00:04:34.540 also how we define the concept of career. 47 00:04:34.540 --> 00:04:38.080 So previously when we have the first days of guidance 48 00:04:38.080 --> 00:04:40.350 and counselling, career was chosen. 49 00:04:40.350 --> 00:04:44.380 So, we had one career that could have been for the rest of my life, but at the 50 00:04:44.380 --> 00:04:49.750 moment the career is like an individual life path in learning and work, where 51 00:04:49.750 --> 00:04:54.630 you have to make decisions, not only one, but as a continuum. 52 00:04:54.630 --> 00:04:59.310 So, you need skills and, sort of, you have to identify how you make the decisions. 53 00:04:59.310 --> 00:05:01.458 So, this has shifted. 54 00:05:01.458 --> 00:05:06.450 This is the reason why the paradigm has shifted from this just making one choice 55 00:05:06.450 --> 00:05:10.250 to the acquiring those skills that you need when making choice. 56 00:05:10.250 --> 00:05:12.050 Who am I? 57 00:05:12.050 --> 00:05:14.300 What I need to know about myself in the future? 58 00:05:14.300 --> 00:05:17.917 So, it is the content and the process. How do I make the decisions? 59 00:05:17.917 --> 00:05:20.203 So that's in line with the recent development. 60 00:05:20.203 --> 00:05:24.920 (Jukka:) Okay, if you think about your own life and your careers, 61 00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:28.240 how many different careers you have had in your life. 62 00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:30.180 (Raimo:) It's a number of careers. 63 00:05:30.180 --> 00:05:33.780 Now I've been in the working life over 40 years. 64 00:05:33.780 --> 00:05:37.200 There have been sort of different options, so part of this 65 00:05:37.200 --> 00:05:39.400 skill is is how do you take the risks. 66 00:05:39.400 --> 00:05:43.520 So, you are willing to take the risk and see the options and horizons. 67 00:05:43.520 --> 00:05:45.630 So, I think this is the future. 68 00:05:45.630 --> 00:05:50.130 And you need these similar skills either in transition in from education to 69 00:05:50.130 --> 00:05:54.090 work, or back to education, or you if you want to obtain skills. 70 00:05:54.090 --> 00:05:59.500 And how you how you market these skills, either employed self-employed or in other 71 00:05:59.500 --> 00:06:02.990 non-standard forms of employment like the platform economy nowadays. 72 00:06:02.990 --> 00:06:06.360 (Jukka:) Yeah, that's right. 73 00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:13.330 In the Finnish system the counsellors have three different kinds of roles. 74 00:06:13.330 --> 00:06:17.090 They work with students and classes. 75 00:06:17.090 --> 00:06:23.930 They have some specific systematic role in inside the educational institutes and educational 76 00:06:23.930 --> 00:06:29.450 settings, and they have quite a lot of collaboration with the stakeholders, and they 77 00:06:29.450 --> 00:06:33.583 have some certain kind of policy level tasks in their job. 78 00:06:35.280 --> 00:06:42.053 Traditionally guidance and counselling practitioners work is 79 00:06:42.087 --> 00:06:44.542 to work individually with the students. 80 00:06:44.607 --> 00:06:48.750 But what elements are typical for Finnish practitioners 81 00:06:48.750 --> 00:06:50.917 while they are working with students? 82 00:06:50.917 --> 00:06:52.870 (Raimo:) I think Finland 83 00:06:52.870 --> 00:06:58.950 is quite unique, if we think how career education has been integrated into curriculum. 84 00:06:58.950 --> 00:07:06.660 So since, during the last 50 years career education has been like having a similar 85 00:07:06.660 --> 00:07:11.750 status like other school subjects, so it's a timetable to activity for students 86 00:07:11.750 --> 00:07:19.020 and services are provided with trained qualified guidance practitioners who are 87 00:07:19.020 --> 00:07:21.160 employed by the school like other teachers. (Jukka:) Yeah. 88 00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:24.220 (Raimo:) So, this gives the mandate for guidance which doesn't 89 00:07:24.220 --> 00:07:26.780 exist necessarily in other countries. 90 00:07:26.780 --> 00:07:31.020 So, this has implication how the role of a guidance counsellor 91 00:07:31.020 --> 00:07:32.880 has emerged in our education. 92 00:07:32.880 --> 00:07:37.800 So, they are in charge of the classroom activities, and we have the national core curricula 93 00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:42.860 which defined the contents and learning objects for career education. 94 00:07:42.860 --> 00:07:46.740 So, it implies that this acquisition of career management skills 95 00:07:46.740 --> 00:07:49.950 is a transversal learning objective for students. 96 00:07:49.950 --> 00:07:54.910 So, practitioners are helping their students to acquire these skills as a continuum. 97 00:07:54.910 --> 00:07:57.240 So, it means that within the classroom activities we 98 00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.720 have exercises for self-assessment. 99 00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:08.550 We obtain labour market information and educational information and also, we are thinking how 100 00:08:08.550 --> 00:08:14.530 we how we sort of use this information in accordance with my own aspirations. 101 00:08:14.530 --> 00:08:18.950 So, we are step by step preparing for transition phases for further 102 00:08:18.950 --> 00:08:21.370 education and also in the future in the labour market. 103 00:08:21.370 --> 00:08:26.110 But also, how you balance your daily activities and how you schedule. 104 00:08:26.110 --> 00:08:27.990 What are the learning objectives? 105 00:08:27.990 --> 00:08:29.970 So, these are part of the activities. 106 00:08:29.970 --> 00:08:33.660 But on top of that there is this individual support for students. 107 00:08:33.660 --> 00:08:41.050 So, personal development and also students are spending two weeks in practical 108 00:08:41.050 --> 00:08:44.350 work experience before they make their choice for the education. 109 00:08:44.350 --> 00:08:49.190 So, practitioners have organised these activities with employers. 110 00:08:49.190 --> 00:08:54.050 They discuss with parents and guardians how these experiences are connected to future 111 00:08:54.050 --> 00:09:00.150 work, and then they also support the other teachers, because according to the curricula 112 00:09:00.150 --> 00:09:03.670 we have so called whole school approach in career development. 113 00:09:03.670 --> 00:09:09.860 So, this implies that all the teachers have to be able to identify how does my own subject 114 00:09:09.860 --> 00:09:13.400 contribute to this labour market calls and student development? 115 00:09:13.400 --> 00:09:18.880 So the school guidance counsellors are also supporting the other staff members 116 00:09:18.880 --> 00:09:23.270 in sort of them reaching the goals of the national core curricula. 117 00:09:23.270 --> 00:09:25.400 So, it is a multitasking. 118 00:09:25.400 --> 00:09:27.485 Very, very, very sort of holistic approach. 119 00:09:27.485 --> 00:09:32.300 (Jukka:) In the final session we were approaching this systematic 120 00:09:32.300 --> 00:09:37.490 role, but before that I would like to ask you, because you have made 121 00:09:37.490 --> 00:09:40.970 a lot of comparisons between the countries. 122 00:09:40.970 --> 00:09:48.770 How unique the Finnish system is in this practitioner in a student level work? 123 00:09:48.770 --> 00:09:50.570 Is this a unique one? 124 00:09:50.570 --> 00:09:53.120 (Raimo:) It's it's quite unique, unique because of the mandate. 125 00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:54.920 (Jukka:) Yes. 126 00:09:54.920 --> 00:09:58.430 (Raimo:) As I mentioned in Finland, it's part of the allocation 127 00:09:58.430 --> 00:10:02.050 of hours, compulsory hours for students. So, it's time tabled. 128 00:10:02.050 --> 00:10:06.060 The other options how you integrate career education to curricula is some, 129 00:10:06.060 --> 00:10:10.570 you can have like, it's embedded, like a transversal subject and you might 130 00:10:10.570 --> 00:10:14.810 have goals, but every time you have to, sort of, search for the mandate 131 00:10:14.810 --> 00:10:17.230 and occasions and time slots for these. 132 00:10:17.230 --> 00:10:22.680 But in in the Finnish system, it's acknowledgeged, it's a very cost-effective 133 00:10:22.680 --> 00:10:25.890 way to meet the whole age cohort before anything happens. 134 00:10:25.890 --> 00:10:31.110 So, strong preventive measure to sort of prevent lower dropout rates, but 135 00:10:31.110 --> 00:10:35.390 also to helping their students to acquire those skills which they need when 136 00:10:35.390 --> 00:10:38.810 they are entering to upper secondary level education. 137 00:10:38.810 --> 00:10:44.070 And this is especially important at the moment when Finland has expanded 138 00:10:44.070 --> 00:10:47.800 the compulsory education from 9 years to 12 years. 139 00:10:47.800 --> 00:10:51.700 And then it's important that students acquire skills which 140 00:10:51.700 --> 00:10:53.640 help them to commit to their studies. 141 00:10:53.640 --> 00:11:00.000 And there is research that these aspirations for career or future career management 142 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:06.380 skills they correlate with their skills, retention and also faster transition to further 143 00:11:06.380 --> 00:11:10.360 education and even in transition in the further working life. 144 00:11:10.360 --> 00:11:14.780 So, this is quite unique. (Jukka:) That sounds very interesting. 145 00:11:14.780 --> 00:11:16.840 We are. 146 00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:22.670 We approach it, a bit, let's proceed to the systematic role, because 147 00:11:22.670 --> 00:11:27.250 the guidance and counselling has developed with also in Finland with 148 00:11:27.250 --> 00:11:29.590 the changes in the educational settings. 149 00:11:29.590 --> 00:11:35.842 We have made educational reforms and at the same time the work of guidance 150 00:11:35.842 --> 00:11:42.120 and counselling is like agents who are making this change. 151 00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:46.100 What kind of findings you have in this area and the systematic 152 00:11:46.100 --> 00:11:49.610 role of the guidance practitioners? 153 00:11:49.610 --> 00:11:52.060 (Raimo:) Like you said that career education has been 154 00:11:52.060 --> 00:11:54.510 a change agent over the school reform. 155 00:11:54.510 --> 00:11:58.610 And it's important that if countries are having school reforms and then 156 00:11:58.610 --> 00:12:01.270 they are thinking how to integrate career education. 157 00:12:01.270 --> 00:12:06.170 It is important that they do these reforms at the same times, because some countries 158 00:12:06.170 --> 00:12:11.000 have done the system first and then guidance-like add-on thing. 159 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.110 So that is strategically too late. 160 00:12:13.110 --> 00:12:18.050 But if we talk about the systemic approach, we have to distinguish whether we are talking 161 00:12:18.050 --> 00:12:23.950 about systemic approach on individual level, like the system three theory framework 162 00:12:23.950 --> 00:12:28.150 for career development by Mary McMahon and Wendy Patton. 163 00:12:28.150 --> 00:12:36.210 They are describing the student as part of their own internal system and also 164 00:12:36.210 --> 00:12:42.270 their families, but they have also had connection to their, let's say, external and social 165 00:12:42.270 --> 00:12:47.420 systems, and then part of the career development process, how they sort of position themselves 166 00:12:47.420 --> 00:12:49.750 in the system and how they interact with the system. 167 00:12:49.750 --> 00:12:51.650 So, it's the individual level. 168 00:12:51.650 --> 00:12:56.890 But now if we are talking about career development or career guidance as a system as 169 00:12:56.890 --> 00:13:03.040 such, then we need to distinguish that although the interventions focus on individual 170 00:13:03.040 --> 00:13:07.060 level, there are other beneficiaries of these activities. 171 00:13:07.060 --> 00:13:11.900 So, it is beneficial for the individual like how I acquire skills like we have 172 00:13:11.900 --> 00:13:16.520 been talking that acquire skills that helps me in transitions, but it is also 173 00:13:16.520 --> 00:13:19.620 an indicator of well- functioning educational systems. 174 00:13:19.620 --> 00:13:24.640 So, if we invest on this and it is like lubricant for systems, students know what they are 175 00:13:24.640 --> 00:13:29.360 doing, they are more committed and then also they are lower dropout rates. 176 00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:34.430 So, this has implications for the efficacy of the educational system. 177 00:13:34.430 --> 00:13:40.770 But in the long run this means also implications for community developments, so better match 178 00:13:40.770 --> 00:13:45.830 of skills demand or emerging competencies areas, and individual aspiration. 179 00:13:45.830 --> 00:13:51.490 So, in the long run, this sort of has implications of equity goals and 180 00:13:51.490 --> 00:13:54.630 guidance acts both as a private good and a public good. 181 00:13:54.630 --> 00:13:59.190 So, it's part of the social contract, and that's why it's important that 182 00:13:59.190 --> 00:14:03.000 we think of the guidance outcomes, how they contribute to educational 183 00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:06.075 labour market policies and also social policies. (Jukka:) Yeah. 184 00:14:06.075 --> 00:14:08.940 (Raimo:) And this implies that none of these sectors can 185 00:14:08.940 --> 00:14:12.200 solve these challenges at by themselves. 186 00:14:12.200 --> 00:14:16.640 So, it needs cooperation and the awareness of the systemic how the system operates. 187 00:14:16.640 --> 00:14:22.120 (Jukka:) Yeah, yeah, we are very close at policy level discussion. 188 00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:27.280 You have specialised in policy level issues in European level, and you 189 00:14:27.280 --> 00:14:31.950 have been expert in in many countries in this field. 190 00:14:31.950 --> 00:14:35.982 How can you see now the situation with the Finnish practitioners 191 00:14:35.982 --> 00:14:38.215 and their work in the policy level? 192 00:14:38.215 --> 00:14:41.378 How important it is and what is the situation now? 193 00:14:41.378 --> 00:14:46.430 (Raimo:) The awareness of policies is really important, because at the moment 194 00:14:46.430 --> 00:14:51.860 there is a consensus among international organisations that the demand for career 195 00:14:51.860 --> 00:14:55.480 guidance or guidance and counselling is bigger than ever. 196 00:14:55.480 --> 00:15:01.710 But most of the practitioners and national competence frameworks, practitioners emphasise 197 00:15:01.710 --> 00:15:06.750 the interaction with individual students and also this career education. 198 00:15:06.750 --> 00:15:12.770 So, I think let's say strategic competence of the practitioners could be stronger. 199 00:15:12.770 --> 00:15:18.700 So, the more we have decentralisation, and some countries are very decentralised systems, it's 200 00:15:18.700 --> 00:15:24.270 important that the practitioners are advocating for guidance and counselling. 201 00:15:24.270 --> 00:15:30.610 So, they are they have to have let's say vocabulary and concept 202 00:15:30.610 --> 00:15:33.250 how to articulate the wider impact of guidance. 203 00:15:33.250 --> 00:15:38.290 Why governments should invest or why local authorities should invest on these issues. 204 00:15:38.290 --> 00:15:42.030 So that implies that, in addition, to the work with the individuals, which is 205 00:15:42.030 --> 00:15:47.000 the core the student-centred approaches the core element, but also then how to 206 00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:51.500 sort of provide, let's say, how to make space for guidance. 207 00:15:51.500 --> 00:15:55.320 How to identify that this contributes to thise wider goals thinking 208 00:15:55.320 --> 00:15:58.360 of the private and public good as well. (Jukka:) Thank you Raimo. 209 00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:03.700 Very, very interesting and let's proceed to content of guidance and 210 00:16:03.700 --> 00:16:08.040 counselling and let's have discussion of that topic. 211 00:16:08.040 --> 00:16:14.350 I have made their three hills model of guidance and counselling. 212 00:16:14.350 --> 00:16:19.050 Traditionally, the content areas of guidance and counselling activities 213 00:16:19.050 --> 00:16:25.440 are divided into guidance of learning and studying, career guidance 214 00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:30.440 and support for personal and pro-development. 215 00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:36.000 The aim of guidance of learning and studying is to support students 216 00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:40.900 in developing methods for studying and to assist them to choosing subjects 217 00:16:40.900 --> 00:16:44.740 which will strengthen take competencies. 218 00:16:44.740 --> 00:16:52.580 The aim of career guidance is to assist students in evaluating their competences, 219 00:16:52.580 --> 00:17:00.080 making plans and decisions concerning education and career, as well as support 220 00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.820 them in executing plans they have made. 221 00:17:03.820 --> 00:17:10.700 The aim of support for personal growth and development is assisting students in 222 00:17:10.700 --> 00:17:17.990 developing independent, active, adaptable and individual personalities along with 223 00:17:17.990 --> 00:17:23.730 the appropriate conditions to develop themselves and society. 224 00:17:23.730 --> 00:17:27.370 It is typical that these content areas of guidance and counselling 225 00:17:27.370 --> 00:17:31.260 activities are not differentiated. 226 00:17:31.260 --> 00:17:34.630 Instead, they are linked to each other. 227 00:17:34.630 --> 00:17:39.470 For instance, the content of career guidance is partly the same as 228 00:17:39.470 --> 00:17:44.250 the content of the guidance of learning and studying as well as the content 229 00:17:44.250 --> 00:17:48.310 of support for personal growth and development. 230 00:17:48.310 --> 00:17:51.700 All these content elements are included guidance and counselling 231 00:17:51.700 --> 00:17:56.540 in all educational settings in Finland education. 232 00:17:56.540 --> 00:18:03.980 However, the emphasis of content area varies between the different level of education and 233 00:18:03.980 --> 00:18:09.753 especially with each phase of studies in student's individual study path. 234 00:18:09.753 --> 00:18:14.250 How do you see the importance of these content areas? 235 00:18:14.285 --> 00:18:17.132 Is some content area more valuable than another? 236 00:18:17.132 --> 00:18:18.833 How do you see? 237 00:18:19.860 --> 00:18:22.680 (Raimo:) Well, I wouldn't rank them. 238 00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:25.690 It's important that we distinguish them when we are working 239 00:18:25.690 --> 00:18:29.530 with students but depending on the situation. 240 00:18:29.530 --> 00:18:31.650 They are connected to each other. 241 00:18:31.650 --> 00:18:37.380 So sometimes my questions might relate to learning or learning 242 00:18:37.380 --> 00:18:39.555 styles or potential learning difficulties. (Jukka:) Absolutely! 243 00:18:39.555 --> 00:18:42.680 (Raimo:) Sometimes they might relate to health or my personal 244 00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:45.330 situation or my career aspiration. 245 00:18:45.330 --> 00:18:49.370 So, they are connected and depending on the individual situation. 246 00:18:49.370 --> 00:18:51.170 They are unique. 247 00:18:51.170 --> 00:18:54.690 So, part of the professionalism of the career practitioners is 248 00:18:54.690 --> 00:18:58.350 to have orientation before we go to intervention. 249 00:18:58.350 --> 00:19:02.680 So, it's an opportunity for the students to orientate what we are talking about. 250 00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:06.740 As for a practitioner, as it's also opportunity, where to focus. 251 00:19:06.740 --> 00:19:10.500 So, the screening, the needs and the let's say the needs for guidance 252 00:19:10.500 --> 00:19:12.600 or readiness for this process is important. 253 00:19:12.600 --> 00:19:14.740 So, I would not value them. 254 00:19:14.740 --> 00:19:21.040 (Jukka:) Good, good, I have my very last observation question for you. 255 00:19:21.040 --> 00:19:26.703 What are the content areas of counselling activities? 256 00:19:26.703 --> 00:19:30.490 Choose just one option. 257 00:19:30.490 --> 00:19:39.060 Option a) Guidance for diving, career guidance, support for personal growth and development 258 00:19:39.060 --> 00:19:47.560 b) Guidance for learning and studying, career guidance, support for personal growth and development. 259 00:19:47.560 --> 00:19:52.407 c) Guidance for learning and studying, occupational 260 00:19:52.407 --> 00:19:56.166 guidance, support for personal growth and development 261 00:19:56.167 --> 00:20:04.110 d) Guidance for learning and studying, career guidance and support, facilitating 262 00:20:04.110 --> 00:20:08.680 your personal growth and development 263 00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:17.417 The right answer is b), because in option a) Guidance for diving, that was easy. 264 00:20:17.417 --> 00:20:25.580 I was just joking with you. c) Occupational guidance. 265 00:20:25.580 --> 00:20:30.680 Partly right, because historically occupational guidance played important 266 00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:36.980 role, but nowadays we understand the concept of career more broadly. 267 00:20:36.980 --> 00:20:42.650 d) Facilitating personal growth and development. 268 00:20:42.650 --> 00:20:48.510 Facilitating might mean that I could be a key role in the process, 269 00:20:48.510 --> 00:20:51.850 or I would be in a key player the process. 270 00:20:51.850 --> 00:20:56.810 In guidance, you are the key actor. 271 00:20:56.810 --> 00:21:03.160 My facilitating might assist you, but I can't facilitate 272 00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:06.380 your personal growth and development. 273 00:21:06.380 --> 00:21:11.580 So Raimo, how you would like to summarise all these thoughts, 274 00:21:11.580 --> 00:21:15.690 which we have had during this session? 275 00:21:15.690 --> 00:21:21.140 (Raimo:) Well, I would say that we do have a history of our profession 276 00:21:21.140 --> 00:21:26.930 over 100 years, and it was sort of built on that context. 277 00:21:26.930 --> 00:21:32.230 And now when the labour market and societies have to have changed, we have to be 278 00:21:32.230 --> 00:21:38.250 able to also reflect our profession, how we transform our profession that meets 279 00:21:38.250 --> 00:21:41.910 the current changes in the labour market and the society. 280 00:21:41.910 --> 00:21:46.740 So how we transform ourselves also in accordance with other changes. 281 00:21:46.740 --> 00:21:52.310 And then I have to, I want to highlight also that the key lesson that 282 00:21:52.310 --> 00:21:55.790 we have learned from international cooperation on this matter that there 283 00:21:55.790 --> 00:21:58.890 is not one model that fit all the countries. 284 00:21:58.890 --> 00:22:04.270 So, the system is filtered through society, let's say cultural tradition, 285 00:22:04.270 --> 00:22:06.990 economic situation, political situation. 286 00:22:06.990 --> 00:22:10.720 So, every time we are talking about career guidance or guidance and counsellelling, 287 00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:16.790 we have to take the local context and conditions and then try to build best system 288 00:22:16.790 --> 00:22:20.920 as possible based on the international experiences. 289 00:22:20.920 --> 00:22:24.239 Thank you so much doctor Vuorinen. (Raimo:) Thank you! 290 00:22:24.239 --> 00:22:26.240 (Jukka:) It was pleasure, and we will meet another 291 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:30.610 interesting person in the next videos. 292 00:22:30.610 --> 00:22:33.421 Have a good journey in the field of guidance and counselling. 293 00:22:37.830 --> 00:22:43.421 Tekstitys: Ääni Company - Sanelius -- www.aanicompany.com -- www.sanelius.fi --
