This section aims to provide information to those people who are considering a career as a counselor.
To talk about counseling as a distinct profession in Romania, a few years ago, seemed like a dream. The professionals who had attributions in which they performed counseling roles were mainly psychologists, but also social workers or teachers.
Currently, in Romania there is the possibility to follow courses at university, postgraduate, master’s or doctoral level, in different fields of counselling: school counselling, career counselling, genetic counselling, etc., and despite this there is no national certification in counseling .
The community of counselors in Romania is in the process of discovering its own professional identity. ACROM (Association of Romanian Councillors) is a young organization that intends to represent and support all Romanian councillors.
