What is the Academia Exchange?
Academia is the title of the network of guidance organisations
in Europe who organise transnational placement programmes
for guidance practitioners in participating countries.
‘It was an amazing experience on so many different levels. I have made contact with Guidance Counsellors in so many countries throughout Europe. This opportunity has opened so many doors and I would recommend it to everyone.’
‘Opportunity to discuss my own practice with other professionals and when discussing what I actually do, this resulted in reflection on how I could improve my work
‘First question I would like to ask is – Can I do it again?’
