The Guidance Center shares in the realization of the PIT Vision-Mission by providing opportunities both for personal and professional growth. It is committed to facilitate the students’ well-balanced development through its various services and expertise made available to the clients in an appropriate atmosphere and in consonance with the individual’s quest in achieving a well-adjusted personality.
The Guidance Center is staffed with full time Guidance Counselors and a clerk. A group of specially trained students known as Peer Counselors assist the Counselors in the implementation of the Guidance Program. A student assistant assigned to the center is also tasked to perform routinary office work.
The Guidance Services include the following:
- Processing and administration of entrance test for high school and college students
- Counseling: Resolution of Problems/Concerns/Difficulties through individual or group Counseling.
- Career and Vocational Counseling
- Client Appraisal
- - Interviews
- - Psychological Test Interpretation
- Information Service
- Referrals to Specialists and Agencies
- Coordinating Services with Subject Teachers, Department Chairpersons and College Deans
When a student’s class behavior has been evaluated by the subject teachers to warrant disciplinary action, he/she will be referred to the Deans or Department Chairs for appropriate action. Otherwise, counseling these students by the Guidance Counselors is deemed necessary. The aim of counseling is esteem and, therefore, should not be regarded as disciplinary.
Counseling sessions are treated with utmost confidentiality. However, parents, teachers and school administrators may be granted partial access to these records through a formal request provided that this will not humiliate and jeopardize the well-being of the student.
