Abstract:
Abstract In the last few decades, a series of changes have been perceived in our society (demographic and sociological, technological, labour market, business organisation, cultural, values…) that affect the perspective of vocational guidance and require modifications in guidance intervention. Guidance plays a very special role in these changes that characterise the current society, as it actively participates in the changes and innovations that are required by the current situation and also in the future. In light of the current needs, guidance should be seen, from a holistic, comprehensive and critical perspective, as a process of mediation, interrelation and facilitation of different processes of transformation and/or social change throughout life (lifelong guidance) where guidance professionals are regarded as agents of change and innovation, with the need to guarantee quality and equity in guidance as added values. This chapter identifies and describes the most notable changes in the current society that affect Career Guidance and Counselling (CGC) and require modifications in guidance intervention. In particular, it examines some of the challenges and perspectives for CGC in Spain, focusing mainly on counselling for migrants and refugees, the changing jobs of the future as well as demographic change and the ageing of the working population.
