36. REPUBLIC ACT NO ]
AN ACT PROFESSIONALIZING THE PRACTICE OF GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING AND CREATING FOR THIS PURPOSE A PROFESSIONAL REGULATORY BOARD OF GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING, APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES
Guidance and Counseling is a profession that involves the use of an integrated approach to the development of well-functioning individual primarily by helping him/her to utilize his /her potentials to the fullest and plan his/her future in accordance with his/her abilities, interests and needs. It includes functions such as counseling, psychological testing, (as to personality, career interest, study orientation, mental ability and aptitude), research, placement, group process, teaching and practicing of guidance and counseling subjects, particularly subjects given in the licensure examinations, and other human development services.

38. The emergence of a movement to explore indigenous psychological concepts and methods inspired attempts to develop psychological tests and other assessment instruments that were suitable for Filipinos. Many such efforts came from thesis and dissertation writers, mainly in the form of developing local norms, translating English texts to Filipino or making adaptations using local situations and scenes (Almonte, as cited in Evangelista, 1990). Continuing efforts on a larger scale, however, came from the Center for Educational Measurement (CEM), which has produced, among others, the Philippine Aptitude Classification Test and the Philippine Occupational Interest Survey (CEM, ).
Many of these locally developed instruments (e.g., measures of aptitude and interest) were patterned after their Western counterparts, using what is called the "apples to bananas" approach (i.e., changing foreign names to local names). Others, however, particularly in the areas of personality and values, resulted from attempts to "'indigenize from within"' (Evangelista, 1990, p. 13), starting with the operationalization of constructs and theories within the cultural context.

39. The PCSPE (Presidential Commission to Survey Philippine Education (PCSPE) report stimulated the growth spurt of career guidance in the country. On the basis of its recommendations, the government initiated the following steps: (a) the introduction of weekly 1-hour homeroom guidance periods, with emphasis on career development, in all elementary and secondary schools; (b) the institution of the National College Entrance Examination (NCEE) as a basis for students' admission into professional degree programs in college; (c) the development and maintenance of "a responsive vocational guidance and testing system in aid of human resources allocation" (Presidential Decree 1412, as cited in Santamaria, 1979, p. 7) by the Bureau of Employment Services; and (d) the delineation of two major thrusts by the National Manpower and Youth Council (NMYC; now incorporated into the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority): skills training and vocational guidance for out-of-school youth (Santamaria, 1979).
The private sector also responded to the PCSPE-identified needs. De La Salle University (DLSU, then known as De La Salle College) launched two projects in cooperation with the NMYC and some private foundations and industrial firms: one that aimed to develop career monographs and audiovisual materials (Salazar, 1986) and another that sought to develop a multiaptitude test battery that was patterned after the General Aptitude Test Battery (Salazar, 1977). The Rotary Club of Manila, on the other hand, again came into the picture as a publisher of career information books.
The emergence of a movement to explore indigenous psychological concepts and methods inspired attempts to develop psychological tests and other assessment instruments that were suitable for Filipinos.
