The Demand for Adult Guidance In 2001 NAEGA published a report by Segal Quince Wicksteed which had been commissioned by the Scottish Executive. This NAEGA Occasional Publication was distributed to members with further copies available for sale. We recently sold the last copy but as we are still getting requests, we've decided to republish in a downloadable format. Click here for a copy.

The full report is organised around answers to four key questions:
The Demand for Guidance reads well and is relevant to guidance work not only in Scotland but throughout the UK and further afield. Do download and read it again (or for the first time). We hope you appreciate this republication. Your comments both on this report and on the merits (or otherwise) of web publication would be greatly appreciated (to Jonathan Brown at ) |
