Still Using Text Five Years After Class

The was an assigned textbook (8th edition) in a Career Development Counseling class I took five years ago and I still refer to it. Career counseling is a required course in all graduate counseling programs whether state approved for licensing or CACREP, CORE, and COAMFTE accredited programs. This is a classic text that provides foundational knowledge needed for practice or just getting through the licensing examination. I highly recommend it !

Improved and Expanded 9th Edition

Now in its ninth edition, this book has become the standard of the field. It is intended to help those whose job it is to facilitate the career development process. This includes school, employment, career and rehabilitation counselors as well as other individuals who are influential in the career development process. The ninth edition has improvements in virtually all areas, the most important of which is that it now meets all Council for the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) standards. Another area that has been expanded is the concept of a career that changes from time to time in the workers life. Based on chaos theory, this realizes that the outlook for particular jobs, particular careers change from time to time and in unpredictable ways. The strengths that this book brings to the subject in the form of the writing style and intellectual depth of the author remain; making this book both educational and entertaining.
