| Abstract: | The concept of globalization elicits a wide range of reactions among the public, policy makers, and academics (Bennhold 2007; Bradsher 2006; Cheng 2005; Dobbs 2004; Friedman 2005; Gilbert 2006; Oppenheimer 2005; Stiglitz 2006; Winestock 2001; World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization 2004). Increased understanding of globalization can help counselors recognize their influential role as one of the few groups
of professionals that operate in schools, mental health, and career counseling settings. Because the consequences of globalization
impact every aspect of life, counselors have a responsibility to understand globalization systemically, including how it impacts
the practice of counseling and how to help their clients function effectively in the context of globalization. In this article,
which is intended as a primer for continued dialogue, globalization is introduced as an issue to be further studied and responded
to by professional organizations around the world. Examples of globalization are offered and a case is made for continued
collaboration between quality assurance and membership organizations in addressing globalization. |
