THE SWEDISH ASSOCIATION OF GUIDANCE COUNSELLORS, (SAGC) was founded in 1975 and organises members from all fields of career guidance. The association offers an annual two-days conference on current topics in the field of career guidance and publishes a quarterly journal, Vägledaren i utbildning och arbetsliv (The Educational and Vocational Guidance Counsellor). The journal is a forum for debate, information about current affairs, recent research findings and developments within educational and vocational guidance and counselling. The Swedish Association of Guidance Counsellors has been acting partner in the Academia network since 1997.
