DESCRIPTION OF CONTENTS:

The article starts from the question: „How can the career counselor contribute to school dropout prevention”?

Moreover, it launches the following hypothesis: The career counselor can contribute to school dropout prevention by raising students’ awareness of the measures (benefits) resulted from continuing their education and training in an educational unit (formal education), and by a better understanding of the students who are likely to quit school.

The author presents a series of techniques and methods by means of which the counselor can identify the real problem which the student faces and develop the action strategy: observation, students’ results analysis, self assessment, communication, mapping based on self-image, the wheel, case study, role play, EGAN model, counseling plan for the target group students, monitoring/ assessment/ expected outcomes.
