Handling and exchanging information is the very basis of
Euroguidance work. One of the advantages of being a European
network, with contact points in 31 countries, is the possibility to
gather information from all these countries, even on a quite
detailed level. Together the Euroguidance network can produce
unique information and comparable data that no single centre
could bring about. The centres exchange information with each
other and inform both national and international clients. In the
Terms of Reference it is specified that the Euroguidance centres
should provide and exchange quality information on:
• educational and vocational guidance systems
• project results, innovative working methods and good practice in the field of
• lifelong guidance
• education and training systems (descriptions at general level)
• the Community initiatives and programmes within the field of education, training
and mobility
• other opportunities for mobility for learning purposes
This is done through many different channels, public, like the national websites,
PLOTEUS and the Euroguidance website and internal, like the Webboard and
handbook, which are part of the members’ area. Some of the content in our common
website is available both through the members’ area and the public part.
Common for all Euroguidance centres are the “Terms of reference“ which stipulate
the core objectives for the network’s activities. There are two overall objectives:
A. Promote the European dimension in guidance
B. Provide quality information on lifelong guidance and mobility for learning purposes.
