Its main objective is to familiarize students with the practice of the counseling process and similar preventive actions in the context of Greek school reality. For this reason, the course is divided in two parts. During the first part, professional psychologists working in schools and other relevant educational organizations will be invited to present the context in which they work, evaluation and counseling procedures as well as the effective management of some major cases. During the second part of the course, the students will present their individual papers, each of which will be an example of managing a real case in the school and the corresponding intervention. Students will draw these cases (in accordance with ethical rules) from their practice in educational institutions. Discussing these cases, there will be simultaneous group supervision within the course.
