  13. Conclusions… There is a political consensus at international level that guidance and counselling are seen as key strategic components for implementing lifelong learning and employment strategies at regional and national levels. The progress can be enhanced if governments invest in the systems that support consistent and coherent lifelong guidance policy development. This approach requires close co-operation between different ministries in charge of guidance related policies as well as a solid evidence base.
