They role of counselors has changed drastically of the years As in the described in materials I read , since the turn of the century mentoring as always been a intricate part of education as far back as early Greece and even during ancient Rome . Vocational Education started in the early nineteen hundreds . In all actually the education reform began with the "sweat shops " during the "Great Depression" was the where counseling and guidance took education reform to a whole different level. Children where force to work in harsh labor situation to support and feed their families . Currently children do work in Labor situation whoever these situation are to better the students academics while allowing, the students to transfer their learning in education to industry , The horrid conditions of the past are long gone . and the role of guidance counselors have now changed since the turn of the century , the Counselors of today are much more student centered , school centered and industry centered . They also have a great responsibilitiy to chart, track and monitor student acheivement.
