Professional Issues: Summary and Conclusion

Career counseling and disentanglement have not been perceived as among the greatest in number important topics within the CACREP core, and this continues to be real It seems as though many counselor educators and practitioners remain unaware of the significance of work in human life and human well-being. Although career unravelling is integral to life planning, it remains questionable whether the majority of practicing counselors have integrated it into their work with clients.

Although career unfolding is recognized as integral to the institute curriculum, there is little evidence that it is actually a part of that curriculum. The programs that exist strike one as being to be "stand alone programs" and not necessarily theory based. Studies have identified wants of special populations including rural assemblages at-risk groups, and groups of youth with various disabilities. However, there is scant report of special programs designed to assist these clusters nor of effective strategies that work with them.

Issues that relate to work and working are plentiful. Conflict at work, downsizing, and inability to decide what to do or by what mode to find work are an of them. It seems that we know what works with these clusters and we continue to learn about agency situations. Largely missing from this year's literature is the whole area of career exhibition as it relates to aging and older parts Because the members of our society are aging and longevity is increasing, this pretends to be an area that requires further study

Also to be considered is in what way all of the wellness professions can best interact to the benefit of the populations that they serve
