This blog focuses on the misuse of the word Career Counselling. If you ask any lay man or a common student in Pakistan, they will say, that a Career Counsellor is any consultant who sends a student for higher education outside Pakistan. And to add to the confusion, quite a few leading educational institutions, proudly display in their advertisement, that we have a ‘Career Counselling Seminar’ available during their Open day sessions. I feel that a clear difference between Advice, Guidance and counselling must be communicated to all the people, so that the misuse of the word could be minimized.

I’ll speak to you soon.
