Describe the evidence-base that can inform the development and delivery of guidance services. Consider the role that policy makers and practitioners have to enhance that evidence base.
What Im going to say is based strongly on work that I am doing with the European Lifelong Guidance Policy Network.
It is a work in progress. Its failures are mine, not the ELGPNs.

Measuring impacts
Whiston et al. (1998) identified impacts across all types of career interventions, but found that individual career counselling was much the most effective for the client, whereas computer-based and classroom/group interventions were more costeffective in terms of counsellor time. This paper drew together 47 studies which utilised controls and involved a total of 4,660 participants.

Bimrose et al. (2008) undertook a five year longitudinal tracking study of 50 career guidance clients. These clients initially encountered career guidance in a range of different settings including further education, higher education and public employment services. The study found that one-toone guidance interventions were regarded as useful by clients, and that guidance services can support adults to make successful transitions in a turbulent labour market.

What are the objectives of service evaluation? What kinds of impacts can and should be identified? What should be monitored routinely? How will such monitoring data be used to inform service development? How will practitioners and managers be engaged in understanding, acting and developing the evidence base for the services that they deliver? How will evaluation be used formatively to support service development? How will evaluation be used summatively to explore the impacts of the service and to identify the return on investment? Who will be responsible for conducting the evaluation? What level of resourcing is needed to support both monitoring and evaluation? How will results from the evaluation be published to contribute to the broader evidence base in the field?
