ABSTRACT

This paper aims to explore the evolution of the roles of university counselors and the need for specialized training. With the continuous development of the higher education system and the diversification of student needs, the roles of university counselors have evolved from traditional educators to comprehensive life guides and values leaders. This research, through literature review and case analysis, elaborates on the new roles of university counselors in student development and support, and analyzes how these changes necessitate specialized training for counselors. The findings of this paper are valuable for university administrators to better understand the roles of counselors and provide them with more effective training and development opportunities to meet the needs of students.
