Summary/Abstract: This paper outlines some of the most prominent approaches to Quality Assurance that are used in the provision of career guidance services in Europe. Drawing on a range of sources, and particularly on the work that has been done in the context of the international Career Guidance reviews and studies since the year 2000, the paper identifies some of the key trends, as well as the most important challenges that need to be addressed in order to ensure that citizens are well served in what is increasingly seen to be an entitlement, particularly in a historical conjuncture marked by social and economic insecurity.
