• Guidance and Counseling

  Individual or group counseling sessions are held to provide students with an opportunity to express and clarify feelings, ideas, conflicts, plans, projects, etc. that affect the moral values and various aspects of life, such as aspirations, educational career, physical, social, spiritual, psychological, personal and emotional problems in an atmosphere of harmony, acceptance and privacy.

• Psychological Testing

  It helps students develop a better understanding of themselves through an objective assessment of their mental ability, aptitude, interest, vocational preference, and personality. This will enhance greater self- awareness and understanding in relation to their career and personhood.

• Career Guidance and Job placement

  This service assists students and graduates in career planning by providing information on job opportunities and employment trends. Networking and linking strategies with UPLB alumni are also carried out to maintain continued ties with the University through recruitment and job placement during the Annual Job Fair. A Pre-Employment Seminar Workshop is also held to prepare our graduates’ entry into the world of work.

• Trainings and Orientation

  These are activities tailored to the adjustment needs of new freshmen and transferees, new students, and international students. OCG has the Pre-College Orientation Program for freshmen to help them adjust in their transition from high school to college life. It also aims to orient them on the different program services of OVCSA-OCG. Added to this is a special Parents’ Orientation Program, which serves as a venue for parents to raise queries regarding school policies, services and other related matters.

• Guidance Instruction

  A module on group growth and development was designed, so students can become more socially effective and well- adjusted individuals. This is also known as the Guidance Instruction Program.

• Student Readmission

  As part of the readmission process, the Office of Counseling and Guidance interviews students to ensure they are mentally prepared for the academic challenges ahead once they are readmitted. It becomes an avenue to confirm if they can acknowledge their challenges and concerns, and if they have a specific plan of action to address them. During the interview, students will also be reminded of the various support services available through the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, which they can access as deemed necessary.

• Extension Activities

  Various training activities, seminar/workshops, and enrichment programs on student personnel work, human resource development, etc. are extended by the Office of Counseling and Guidance to serve the needs of interested constituents of UPLB and other outside agencies. Community-based projects such as the “Off- the-Street, On-to-School” is one of its successful projects.

• Appraisal, Follow-up and Referral

  OVCSA-OCG has established linkages with the different agencies and institutions for referral purposes to assist its clientele in finding solutions to some special types of problems.
