In the morning, foreign guests and representatives of AVŠP will present the current state of higher education counselling in individual countries. This will be followed by practical contributions to three thematic blocks, which we have selected in cooperation with members of the AVŠP. For example, TU Dresden will present its innovative concept of the so-called Autumn University, which is designed to enable first-year students to socialise more easily at university; the University of Nitra will introduce its current concept of health counselling, which is aimed at both students and their family members. Among other things, the Nepustit Duši (Don’t Let Go of the Soul)  association and student support groups will present their work. The other presentations will also involve the students to a greater extent, so that they can report from their own experience on how they perceive counselling practice.
