On the Professional Development of the Counsellor Team in Universities

This paper defines the professional development of the counsellor team in universities as a process of developing and improving the knowledge system, establishing professional education and certification system, establishing the work standard and professional ethic system, forming professional associations and gaining social status. We argue that although the professional development of the counsellor team has firm basic condition, there is little measure to facilitate the process of professional development. In order to improve the professional development of the counsellor team, we need to build positive consensus, improve related institutions, develop professional associations, increase the career standards, and improve work circumstances and career development condition.
