Abstract
A research review of career education, career guidance and curricular choice in a sample of Australian secondary schools reveals an almost total lack of rationale; a lack of any coherent, planned approach; and some continuing serious confusion in the field about the actual and distinct nature of the separate but related functions of career education, career guidance and career counselling. This group of activities is also either under-resourced or not provided at all at the level of need or demand. The relationship between any form of career education processes and curricular choice structures was weak or non-existent. The interim research outcomes include recommendations for new systemic and school-based investment of specialist resources, staff and information dissemination techniques.
