In industrialized societies, individuals are facing major
challenges that mobilize many of their psychological and social
resources. The world of work is changing constantly. Adults have to
adapt their technical skills and knowledge continuously. For
teenagers and young adults, choosing a vocation and constructing
their future career paths is becoming increasingly difficult. The
migration of people and the globalization of the workforce raise
questions about social inclusion and the future of affected
individuals. These examples highlight of the importance of the
field of Career Counseling and Guidance to support citizens
individually and collectively in building their future. The
challenges our societies face demonstrate how crucial the
development of research in this field is. The European Doctoral
Programme in Career Guidance and Counselling (ECADOC), funded by
the European Commission from 2013-2016, has brought together PhD
students working on burning issues in this field, using various
theoretical references and methodologies. The four parts of this
book present a selection of innovative research aiming to find
answers to the named challenges. Part 1 deals with key
psychological processes involved in career construction of young
adults. Part 2 presents research concerning transitions over the
course of life. Part 3 covers research related to interventions of
career guidance and counseling. Part 4 outlines perspectives for
the future and proposes a European Research Agenda for our field of
research. Perspectives on Current Research in Career Guidance and
Counseling - Building Careers in Changing and Diverse Societies is
dedicated to students, researchers and practitioners in the fields
of education, career guidance, psychology, human resource
management to inform them about very recent work and promote the
development of innovative interventions and programmes.

Our lives and careers are becoming ever more unpredictable. The
"life-design paradigm" described in detail in this ground-breaking
handbook helps counselors and others meet people's increasing need
to develop and manage their own lives and careers. Life-design
interventions, suited to a wide variety of cultural settings, help
individuals become actors in their own lives and careers by
activating, stimulating, and developing their personal resources.
This handbook first addresses life-design theory, then shows how to
apply life designing to different age groups and with more at-risk
people, and looks at how to train life-design counselors.
