    Dear Student,

    We welcome you to our academic programme, Post Graduate Diploma in Guidance and

    Counselling (PGDGC) through Distance Mode. The course aims to train personnel as counsellors

    or teacher counsellors to guide and counsel students in school and other related settings.

    Since the need for qualified counsellors has been felt acutely in India in recent times as growing

    competitions in day to day life, hassle at work place, requirements of family life, socialcomplexities etc. have given birth to various physiological as well as psychological problems.

    Distinct kinds of mental and physical problems are found in different segments of society. Day to

    day life problems, social tensions have made lives more difficult and miserable. Different

    psychosocial, socio-economic and emotional problems prevailing in the society and related issues

    need to be tackled with technical expertise. Problem of adjustment, mental disturbances like

    depression, over anxiety etc. are prominent among the masses having wider spectrum require

    urgent intervention, which not only necessitate emotional and social support but amicable

    management to resolve them permanently. Tensions and pressure of life are not confined to

    working people and professionals only but have also percolated down to school going children,

    household wives and many others. Students in schools suffer from behavioural and adjustment

    problems besides learning disorders. Like wise the needs of physically disabled persons, as well asof those afflicted with debilitating diseases and the victims of trauma, sufferers of terrorism etc. are

    the instances of special populations for whom trained and qualified counselors are badly needed.

    The remedial answer to such problems lies in the field of counselling psychology which is not only

    an important branch of psychology but, in fact, deals with the application of psychological

    principles as well as therapeutic techniques in combination. It adopts a reflective approach

    combining understanding both from formal psychological enquiry as well as from the interpersonal

    relationship between the counsellor and client. Guidance and counselling is considered an integral

    part of total educational process as it helps in achieving educational objectives for overall

    development of children and youth. Guidance and Counselling services in schools have gained

    significance as these aims at total development of the individual in all aspects of life, i.e.

    intellectual, personal-social, educational and career. Guidance and Counselling, both as an

    approach and as a service can only be followed and practiced by personnel adequately trained in its

    theory and practice.

    This Post Graduate Diploma in Guidance and counselling (PGDGC) through distance mode

    is different from the full time /formal programmes. Here the teaching and learning takes place

    through the instructional (print) material at the programme centre allotted to you. Besides this,

    counselling sessions and practical work/activites are also organized to facilitate the development of

    skills that would help manage effectively the teaching learning process. In addition to this, you will

    have to submit your assignments at your specified programme centre. Feedback on assignments

    will also be provided to you. The information provided in this booklet will help you to organize and

    systematize your study related to various components of the programme.We hope you will find the programme interesting and useful. We also wish you success in

    completing the course and hope that you are able to use the knowledge & skill developed through

    this programme at your workplace.

    With best wishes

    1 GENERAL INFORMATION1.1 Jamia Millia IslamiaJamia Millia Islamia was founded at Aligarh in 1920 during the Khilafat and Non - Cooperation

    Movement in response to Gandhiji's call to boycott government supported educational institutions.

    Among those who enthusiastically responded to this call were Shaikhul Hind Maulana Mahmudul

    Hasan, Maulana Mohammed Ali, Hakim Ajmal Khan, Dr. Mukhtar Ahmad Ansari and Abdul

    Majeed Khwaja. These eminent personalities, along with some others, founded the Jamia Millia

    Islamia. They nurtured it through the changing vicissitudes of history at great personal risk and

    inconvenience.

    The Jamia moved from Aligarh to Delhi in 1925. Since then, it has been continuously growing,

    always refurbishing its methods, and branching out from time to time to meet new needs. True to

    the ideals of its founders, it has, over the years, tried to integrate the physical and mental

    development of its students.

    The Jamia was made a Central University by an Act of Parliament on 26 th December, 1988 vide

    Jamia Millia Islamia Act 1988 (No: 59) The Degrees / Diplomas / Certificates awarded by JamiaMillia Islamia, are recognized by all the members of the Association of Indian Universities (AIU)

    and are at par with Degrees / Diplomas and Certificates of all the Indian Universities, Deemed

    Universities and other Institutions.

    Jamia reflects the original concern of its founders, which was to encourage the indigenous roots of

    education. It has cherished and has continued to encourage a critical appreciation of the countrys

    history and culture and also the history of Islam with its rich cultural and intellectual traditions. It

    seeks to foster a national and cosmopolitan perspective in its academic programmes as well as in

    co-curricular activities.

    The objectives of Jamia are to disseminate advanced knowledge and provide instruction, researchand extension facilities in various branches of learning. The University endeavors to provide the

    students and teachers with the necessary atmosphere and facilities for the promotion of studies in

    various disciplines from Nursery to Ph.D. level, innovations in education leading to restructuring of

    courses, new methods of teaching and learning and integrated development of personality and

    national integration, secularism and international understanding.

    Today, Jamia Millia Islamia is one of the most prominent and promising Central University of the

    country. The academic programmes of the university leading to higher education, degrees,

    diplomas and certificates are offered through 8 Faculties, 25 Centres and Institutes and school

    sections (Nursery to Senior Secondary level).

    1.2 Arjun Singh Centre for Distance & Open LearningJamia Millia Islamia with the assistance of Distance Education Council (DEC) had established the

    Centre for Distance & Open Learning (CDOL) on 6th September 2002 (now named as Arjun Singh

    Centre for Distance and Open Learning-ASCDOL), with the aim to join the open learning system

    in providing opportunities for higher education to those who otherwise are not able to draw benefit

    from the conventional system. The Jamia Millia Islamia, being a Central University, has national

    3. INSTRUCTIONAL SYSTEM

    The Post Graduate Diploma in Guidance and Counselling (PGDGC) includes the multi-media

    approach i.e., Self-learning Print Material, Counselling Sessions, Assignments and Project Work

    Activities. The project work activities will be carried out in the schools or guidance agencies under

    partial supervision while the counselling session will be held at the programme centres.

    3.1 Print Material

    The print materials are the self-learning materials for both theory and project work of theprogramme. The theory courses are supplied to the students in the form of Blocks. Each

    block contains 2-4 units. Each course has its own code number.

    3.2 Audio and Video ProgrammesThe Audio and Video programmes are meant for further clarification and enhancement of

    understanding. These are used during counselling and workshop sessions at programme

    centres.

    3.3 Counselling SessionsGenerally the counselling sessions will be held at the programme centres on weekends or at

    the time appointed by the Study/Programme Centres, within the general schedule of theprogramme. The Coordinator/Programme Incharge at the programme center will decide on

    the coverage of these sessions. The Programme Centre Coordinator/Programme Incharge

    will also provide the counselling schedule. The counselling sessions will include

    clarifications required in the print-material and the solution of problems through active

    interaction with students.

    The counselling sessions are organized for all the theory courses. The counselling time for

    each theory course will consist of 16 hours (8 sessions of 2 hours each). Thus each

    student will attend 80 hours of contact counselling sessions for all the five theory

    courses. The schedule of the sessions will be flexible and will concentrate on more relevant

    and important issues or topics. The students will be provided with a copy of schedule in

    advance so that they come prepared for discussions during counselling sessions. Attendingthe counselling sessions is optional but is always in the interest of learners to attend these

    sessions.

    3.4 AssignmentsAssignments are an integral and compulsory component of the instructional system. About

    30% of the marks are allotted to the assignments in each theory course. There are two

    assignments in each course. Each assignment is of 15 marks for theory courses of 100

    marks. It is expected that the two assignments in each course (i.e.10 assignments for five

    theory courses) should be submitted to the Programme Incharge after the counselling of a

    particular course is over.

    for missing pages/books/assignments, if any, and contact the coordinator of your

    Programme Centre. The assignments are designed in such a way as to help you concentrate

    mainly on the printed course material. However if you have easy access to other books, you

    may make use of them. The assignments will be returned to you by the

    evaluators/counsellors with their comments and marks. The comments will guide you in

    your study and help you in improving your performance. The assignments will be changed

    submit it for improvement of marks. Assignments are not subject to re-evaluation except for

    factual errors, if any committed by the evaluator. The discrepancy noticed by you in the

    evaluated assignments should be brought to the notice of the Coordinator of the Programme

    Centre so that the required correction can be made.

    Important points to note:The following points should be kept in mind while preparing the assignments:

    the descriptions adequate and not too short. The word limit is set to sharpen the focus of the

    response and not to restrict your expression.

    is not legible, you may send typed responses but not printed or computerized.
