The web counsellors said: Its great having colleagues with
special competences within higher education! What questions I dont
meet these kind of questions in my traditional everyday counselling
at my school. Its so exiting to be able to develop this service
together! Do we have to have an answer to everything? Maybe we cant
be experts on other countries education systems. Its easy helping
each other with complicated e-mail Working in the Guide to Guidance
service has taught me new things that I can use in my traditional
counselling IAEVG 2009

The clients said: It was really good not to have to meet on a
certain time Easy to just phone I received very good support by the
web counsellor I found it negative that if I would phone another
day, someone else would answer. My questions were answered and I
got the opportunity to engage in a web based interest inventory.
