The project studies the guidance skills of professionals in two contexts, in the practical teaching of social work and in the specialization training of occupational health physicians. Workplace guidance has a key role in learning how to become a professional at work. In the project, guidance skills are analysed in connection with training and development processes. We study how guidance skills are learned; a concept for guidance training and a tool for assessing guidance skills are developed for the professional fields.
