It is absolutely necessary that the Maritime Institute happens to be at university level to meet global needs. Our officers do not operate in Quebec, they sail around the world. To complete the project, the Maritime Institute to partner with a university account. He has already made contact with foreign universities, but the Maritime Institute prefers UQAR. "There are American universities who have approached us and we are in contact with the French schools, but it is certain that I prefer a partner in the region and UQAR seems to me all set to work with us in this direction "said Alain Richard. For its part, stresses UQAR is too early to comment publicly on the project.

Students from colleges launch seven recommendations for the future of the college system. The Quebec Federation of College Students (FECQ) announces the launch of a resolution of support for maintaining a strong college system despite the drastic decrease in the number of students that has been raging since 1996. Between 1999 and 2015, several areas have lost up to 30% of their student numbers by the Ministry of Education, Recreation and Sports (MELS) and the situation does not look more rosy in the short and medium term . Against this backdrop, students want a real vision of the college system to maintain the 48 public colleges and operational quality. The resolution of support includes seven applications, the maintenance of diversity training in the region, creating a new funding formula that takes into account the asymmetric real needs of colleges and the establishment of new college centers for technology transfer (CCTT). It also recommends the creation of a new tool for managing the card program that would ensure the development of exclusive programs, such as circus arts program at Cégep Limoilou or program adventure tourism at the Cégep de Gaspé. www.lescegeps.com/nouvelles/2011-01-21_les_etudiants_des_cegeps_lancent_sept_recommandations_pour_assurer_lavenir_du_reseau_coll

Collège Shawinigan. A placement rate of nearly perfect. The program in occupational health and safety Shawinigan College works very well. Four years after its launch, the placement rate is nearly 100%, mainly in the Mauricie. The property is also becoming a pioneer in hygiene and sanitation. A few years ago, as a matter of economy, hygiene and safety were not maintained in priorities of some health facilities. The Department of Health and Social Services, however, decided to give an extra push to rectify the situation. There is a little over four years, the College launched its program Shawinigan. It is clear that it works very well. Each year, the hotel refuses twenty nominations. Five cohorts of 20 students have been trained since the program began. This is a course of 615 hours or two sessions of three months each. Students are also trained in the laboratory. This training is unique in the country, including fight against nosocomial infections, demonstrates that partnership between the Center for Health and Social Services and Energy Shawinigan College can be very profitable at all points of view. Comments (3) Posted by Nicole: I have taken this course and yes it has jobs. The problem is that the Department of Health does not recognize the training, our graduates are not valide.Hygiène and safety?? rather any other related tasks that do not have the real métier.Nous fortunate to have the workstations that we come back from the health and safety because it is seniority that is a priority then the healthcare staff and other prennent.La the business need that hygiene become a priority in our school?? a big question I left unanswered because we exist really in hatching period and thereafter is ignorance until the prochaine.C is a fine profession, but my skills I use to me before system. Posted by Robaux I fully agree with the comments Magnethor. It will be so as long as working conditions have not been adjusted to the new reality of the workplace: Seniority is not the only rule of use and do not always reflect the skill. Posted by Magnethor I took the training in the second cohort. I soon found a job. We all find it deplorable that this training is not recognized. Do you think we are the ones who work against nosocomial infections? Do you know exactly how it works in the health service. Probably not, so I'm going to specify something. These are not skills that are recognized but seniority. We're all tired of seeing the orderly and food aid, without training, held the positions available only because of their seniority. Those who have completed training and are specialized in disinfection are far behind (3-4 years old). Then try to imagine a cook or orderly fight against Clostridium difficult, MRSA, VRE, influenza, gastroenteritis, etc. for Specialists are the key. www.radio-canada.ca/regions/mauricie/2011/01/21/006-college-shawinigan-hygiene-salubrite-programme-placement.shtml

It will help build and refine the program, says he. The University of Lausanne, in turn, will also have an advisory role in defining the program and may assist in the recruitment of teachers. "It takes someone who has a taste for this challenge there," says Mr. Delisle. Since The News has announced plans to UQTR create this new program, many people have expressed interest in attending this course, "says Delisle.

New diagnostic criteria for personality disorders. The Working Group of the American Psychological Association working on revising the diagnostic criteria of personality disorders for the publication of the new edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, DSM-5, has simplified the criteria originally proposed. The publication of the new edition of the manual used internationally by health professionals, insurers ... , Is scheduled for 2013. Criteria components include three dimensional, that is to say, whose elements are rated on a scale. The dimensional aspect is a significant change from the DSM-IV (and for several other diagnoses). Those three components: a document assessing the level of general functioning of the personality dimensions assessing correspondence to certain personality types (which are the 10 disorders DSM-IV current); dimensions independent (ie say dissociated types, unlike the version originally proposed) for six areas of personality traits, which were determined based models of personality (such as the famous model in 5 factors). These three components are combined to give the criterion A (dysfunction of the personality) and criterion B (good match to any of the types or extreme valuation on one of the six traits) of the general definition of a disorder personality. This model, argues the group work is flexible and focuses attention on the psychopathology of personality with increasing degrees of specificity, depending on the weather, information and expertise available. Thus, the first document indicating the level of functioning to determine whether a person has a personality problem, and if so, its level of severity, the type allows the characterization of the disorder, the odds on features allow a more detailed description of heterogeneity compared to the 10 pre-defined types, if desired and also describe people who do not fit one of 10 types. The working group had originally proposed a system with 5 predefined types rather than the current 10, which had been controversial (excluding the narcissistic personality disorder in particular had been questioned). To facilitate the transition from DSM-IV DSM-5, 10 types will be preserved. This model is currently being tested for its reliability and clinical utility. Future changes, based on these tests are anticipated. www.psychomedia.qc.ca/troubles-personnalite/2011-01-10/criteres-diagnostiques-dsm-5

What a personality disorder? Here diagnostic criteria of general personality disorders described by DSM IV (1): A. An enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior that deviates markedly from what is expected in the culture of the individual. This deviation is manifested in at least two of the following areas: (1) cognition (2) affectivity (that is to say, diversity, intensity, lability and appropriateness of emotional response) (3) interpersonal functioning (4) impulse control B. These enduring pattern is inflexible and pervasive social and personal situations vary widely. C. The enduring pattern leads to clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other important areas. D. This mode is stable and prolonged its onset and are detectable later in adolescence or early adulthood. E. This pattern is not better explained by events or consequence of another mental disorder. F. The enduring pattern is not due to direct physiological effects of a substance (eg. Drug) or a general medical condition.

TESTS self-assessment for personality disorders. Here are tests for self-assessment for personality disorders adapted by Psychomedia from the DSM IV diagnostic criteria (1) Click on this link www.psychomedia.qc.ca/troubles-personnalite/tests-d-auto-evaluation- for-personality disorder-to- A personality disorder is an enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior: - which deviates markedly from that expected in the culture of the individual - which is rigid and invades the personal and social situations very different - which is stable over time and whose first manifestations are detectable later in adolescence or early adulthood - and that is the source a distress or impairment in functioning. The diagnosis of personality disorder can be difficult because several aspects must be considered. It is even more difficult to self-diagnose, especially because the modes of operation characteristics are often not recognized by the person or not recognized as problematic. Another difficulty for self-diagnosis can, conversely, be a tendency to identify too easily into the workings described and to overestimate the importance of personality traits that are not sustainable or invasive, or does not cause distress or impairment in functioning significant. The following questionnaires are presented for informational purposes and to promote reflection and not for self-diagnosis.

Too many Quebec workers overqualified. In Quebec, nearly a third of all Quebec workers are overqualified in relation to their jobs. Among the graduates of college and university, this rate rises to over 40%. Should we see a "waste of human resources? Martin has an MA in art history. Yet today he is employed by a ... financial institution. "In art history, there are not many job opportunities," says one who prefers to conceal his real name. For two years, the young man looked for a job in his field, but in vain. To pay the rent, he became an agent at the customer service of a financial institution, a job that requires a degree in secondary five. "At this point, I was really wondering why I decided to study art history. I thought I would have had to study to become an electrician. I was really discouraged, "he quips. A few months later, however, Martin has been promoted, becoming a trainer in customer service. Even if he had no degree in administration, as requested by the job, training was recognized. "So I can say indirectly, at least, I used my studies," he quips. In Quebec, thousands of workers face a similar situation, their training is far superior or unrelated to their daily grind. The phenomenon affects 28% of all Quebec workers, according to a study conducted in November by Bruno Hubert, a masters student at the National Institute of Scientific Research (INRS), who worked in collaboration with the Confederation of Trade Unions Quebec. www.cyberpresse.ca/le-soleil/actualites/education/201101/23/01-4362958-trop-de-travailleurs-quebecois-surqualifies.php

nurse practitioners: an alarming failure rate. The high number of failures so worried about the College Nurses of Quebec Federation of General Practitioners. The training program university nurse practitioners (IPS) faces another challenge. Nearly 40% of students enrolled at the option of primary care have failed the provincial exam last, just before Christmas - this review is essential to graduation. A total of 33 aspirants to a nurse practitioner specializing had registered for consideration by the College of Nurses of Quebec (ONQ).

VIDEO GAMES Video games do not promote obesity in children. Video games and the Internet are not necessarily related to obesity in children, but rather may influence their school career. According to a study by the University of Michigan, many children who play video games are not more obese than their peers, but their academic results are less good. This study also found that children who surf the Internet more often than others generally have more facilities for reading. Parental income, education and origin culture are better indicators of prevalence of obesity, researchers have found, that the use of new technologies by children. "However, a nuanced study, there is evidence that children who play more than other video games have worse educational outcomes, are more aggressive and are less valued by their teachers, compared to children who play less or no video games.

The good and bad fats affect the risk of depression. Saturated fats and trans fats increase the risk of depression whereas polyunsaturated fat and olive oil, the decrease, according to a study published in the journal PlosOne. Almudena Sánchez-Villegas and colleagues from the Universities of Navarra and Las Palmas have analyzed the dietary habits 12 059 for 6 years. None of them suffered from depression at baseline as was the case 657 to the end. Those who had high intakes of trans fatty acids had a higher risk of depression by 48% compared to those not consuming these fats. This was more consumption, the greater the risk was high. www.psychomedia.qc.ca/depression/2011-01-26/alimentation-bons-mauvais-gras-influence-risque

Computers

view all day in front of a PC for training on Windows servers that I use at work, I deserted my blog and just reading all those that I particularly appreciate. Overall, there are a lot and finally I took a lot of delay. This training consisted of maintenance and administration of servers. For ordinary mortals, the "server" is the mayor who administers the nation that are "saying" the people the municipality. And during this training, my trainer (I was the only trained) very competent I confirmed what I imagined: We are ALL fliquer on everything we do on our poor PC connected to our organization. Everything we do is recorded and available to the Administrator. He gave as an example a person of his company who printed personal pictures from his position at work. Our Internet operators keep for 2 years all sites to which we connected. Google "private company" keeps all the research we have done since we understood that when poste.Je bump, do not abuse rights that our company gives us, but what bothers me flicage. The trainer was talking about his father who thought they saw far fewer police officers than in the years "1960", but I'm sure we lost a little freedom. I admit that watching pedophiles, but as gay, is that I will not be in the same bag by any employee of a provider. I spoke to Fred in my last post. His blog has absolutely nothing pornographic. I admit that I have nothing to do in my job, but to force ban everything and that's what I feel at all levels in our society we're not about a totalitarian society. Capital is only interested in "work" when it reports results to its shareholders. The Tunisians are insurgents, I wish the best for their country, after the Egyptians. Even in the West our freedoms have been (somewhat) limited. What about those countries run by dictators for over 25 years.

The number of sick leave in the system of education of concern to the Federation of School Boards, which calls for a study by the Department of Education to better understand its causes. During 2009-2010, 714 351 days of wage insurance were paid to executives, teachers, professionals and support staff of the school network, a total of nearly 23 million working days. The absenteeism rate is 3.12%, down slightly in recent years, which does not prevent the Fédération des commissions scolaires du Québec (QBCF) to be concerned about the situation.

The meaning to hang - Emilie Robert co ticket on http://www. orientaction.ca / Recently, we saw the announcement of a new initiative of the Ministry of Education, Recreation and Sport (MELS) to encourage boys to complete high school. The ministry has launched an awareness campaign using a website (www.jefinis.com) and television ads aimed especially boys at risk of dropping out. The campaign relies heavily on financial and material arguments, stating in particular young people that they have better pay, can buy more things and "meet girls, they are at school" if they continue their studies. This campaign has provoked strong reactions in the media, among others, columnist of the newspaper Le Soleil, Jean-Simon Gagne (January 3, 2011, Opinion section), which describes the choices that were made by the MELS in relation to this issue. This debate got me thinking about the phenomenon of school dropouts, but the hangup, and especially the place of professional guidance in this matter. Working in a college institution, I can not speak officially dropout students I meet, they are no longer in compulsory education. However, a similar phenomenon occurs in college. First, it is boys who are statistically more difficult to succeed in school. Then, according to a survey conducted by the college where I work, lack of motivation and direction to school would be the main reason given by students who have left the program or college before graduation in December If college students, who chose to go there and have chosen a particular program, see little relevance of studies about their future and their happiness, the difficulty to grasp this meaning must be even more difficult to school. For some kids, the only motivation they have to go to school is legally obliged to attend. These young people are still far from knowing the demands of adult life, the demands of the labor market and the usefulness of studies to address them. However, many dropouts hang up. 80% of them do, according to the site jefinis.com. They do the day they have a study project that makes sense for them. One has only to see the admission statistics in colleges and universities to raise the hypothesis that we are witnessing a significant return to school and many young adults. Colleges and universities in Quebec have broken records for admission in 2010, despite a declining population of youth in Quebec. I met several students, a little older, going back to school and I share their past mistakes and learning that they have made. They are now determined and motivated because they feel invested in their efforts. The persistence and hook pass through vocational guidance clear and defined. And that takes time. I know I'm not the first to say so. It was such an objective of the guidance approach to high school. But I find that these essential elements are not put forward in advertising campaigns and the media. Maybe we, guidance professionals, should talk more and more put forward. Who knows? Maybe we should do advertising campaigns in our turn! www.orientaction.ca/index.php?option=com_myblog&show=Le-sens-pour-raccrocher-A-milie-Robert-co.html&Itemid=0

To fight against the stall, puts Quebec forward the money ... and girls! School Dropout: a campaign aimed at boys. One of the main arguments for keeping the boys at school: "You don? There may never have thought, but the girls, they are to the school. So if you want more chances to meet your future girlfriend, you better t? sit on the bench? school side? it. "To convince boys to stay in school, the government decided to talk to them frankly. In a Web site unveiled Monday, the Ministry of Education will be arguments "pragmatic." First, money: the holder of a vocational diploma (DEP) or college diploma (DEC) earns on average 35 percent more than non-graduates, or about $ 9,000 per year. Enough to buy movie tickets 782 or 134 video games, it added. Then love: "You do not have perhaps never thought of, but the girls, they are school. So if you want more chances to meet your future girlfriend, you'd better sit down on the school bench beside her. "In fact, the list of arguments listed by the website is long: "Who is proud to say he did not finish high school?" Leaving school for a job poorly paid, "it does not mean being free." Not to mention: dropouts are twice as likely to experience depression and to be unemployed than graduates, in addition to live as long! Beyond the website, the campaign comes in capsules that will be televised on RDS presented to January 17 and March 28 to April 28. It presents the stories of workers who have considered leaving school but who persevered and others who have dropped out and then hung up. At a press conference Monday, the Education Minister Line Beauchamp has ensured that the initiative was not intended "sanctimonious." Her goal, she said, is to place young people about the consequences of the choices available to them: "drop" the school or graduate. It is intentionally that the campaign was launched a few days before Christmas, while many students have just received their report cards. "Time Christmas is often a turning point, where the young who are discouraged by a (bad) result (...) may be thought and said "Is it worth the trouble that I continue ? I could maybe go to work immediately, "said Ms. Beauchamp, emphasizing the important role parents play in the progress of their children. The campaign will cost $ 400 000 in Quebec. It is part of an action plan which aims to ensure that by 2020, 80 percent of youth under 20 years of age hold a degree or qualification, against 71.5 per cent currently. "We never claimed that campaigns Promotional sufficient by themselves to change things, "agreed the minister.

Even negative emotions help learning. Levitation? Not really. It is by concentration that Claude Frasson manages to raise the ball, but through the intermediary of an amplifier and a receiver of beta waves emitted during neuronal activity. By its sole focus, Claude Frasson manages to levitate a small Styrofoam ball placed at one meter and a half before him: the more focused, more the ball rises, lifted by a gentle stream of air. He even succeeded in guiding the movement on a path strewn with pitfalls. But to get there, it has a headset that amplifies his brain waves and directs them to a receiver programmed to respond to the characteristic waves of concentration or beta waves. "This device is used to exercise its concentration and thus to reduce their stress," said the professor, Department of Computer Science and Operations Research. The device in question could help people whose level of anxiety impedes learning or closes access to information learned. www.nouvelles.umontreal.ca/recherche/sciences-technologies/20110117-m-me-les-emotions-negatives-aident-a-lapprentissage.html

Sex Education: sexologists want have a role to play. This fall, elect the committee for culture and education have unanimously recommended that "a program compulsory sex education be developed and offered from preschool through high school. " Concerned over the return of sex education in schools in Quebec, sexologists are asking the Education Minister Line Beauchamp, to include in the new formula to correct the mistakes of the past. A group of 185 sex therapists wrote to the Minister Beauchamp to express their concerns about the long awaited return of sex education in schools. "We apprehend that this reintroduction is done on paper only and that the quality of education about sexuality continues to be defective, incomplete and granted by actors not to feel comfortable discussing sexuality. We sincerely believe that sex therapists should participate in the return of sexuality education in the school system, "reads the missive. Exclude these professionals would be a "total nonsense", according to the collective. In December, Minister Beauchamp confirmed the return of mandatory training in sex education, a component that had disappeared from the subject-with the arrival of school reform there ten years. The Department does not, however, create from scratch a new course, but instead of setting up blocks of mandatory training that would fit into existing courses at both the elementary and secondary levels. Although they welcome the return of over sexuality education in schools, sexologists are concerned about the quality of such training if it is given by teachers who are not specialists. "To make education about sexuality, it must be comfortable and it can not be learned in a few hours. Why invest money for training that will be made yet about? "Says the spokesperson of the group, Sophie Morin, who stresses that sexologists can count on three years of university education. The signatories of the letter also reminded that committee this fall, something was consensus: those who teach sexuality education should feel comfortable to do, which is really not If a majority of teachers, they added. Currently, some schools rely on sexologists "piece" to provide training to their students, and the results "are more than conclusive," according to the authors of the letter. In the region of Quebec, Marie-Paul Ross sexologist has developed a training for high school students she has given a dozen schools in the province. "The goal is to provide tools for young people to be critical and they understand that pornography is not a model of sex education is commerce," says it, adding that there are always young people who come to thank her after those meetings. The office of the Minister Beauchamp, it was confirmed that the letter has been received. "We're sensitive to comments by sexologists. The Department is working on the new formula, but nothing is decided yet, "said his press secretary, Dave Leclerc. This fall, elect Parliamentary Committee on Culture and Education has unanimously recommended that "a compulsory sex education be developed and offered from preschool through high school." This training, which will be given by speakers and qualified teachers could integrate into courses such as science and technology, ethics and religious culture or physical education and health, could be read in the report of the commission. www.cyberpresse.ca/le-soleil/actualites/education/201101/18/01-4361268-education-sexuelle-les-sexologues-veulent-avoir-un-role-a-jouer.php

Psychologists public network: more and more vacancies. In recent years, the working conditions of some 3,200 psychologists Quebec's network of health and education have deteriorated to such an extent that recruit candidates is harder than ever and that the accessibility of these services is threatened, according to the College of Psychologists of Quebec. If nothing changes between now and summer, psychologists public network threatened to stop supervising student placements, which would prevent a full cohort graduating. "There are more and more vacancies in Psychology public network. The difficult working conditions are pushing the candidate. This is not a simple matter of compensation. Accessibility of services is under threat, "said Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of psychological services in hospitals in Quebec, Marcel Courtemanche. The president of the College of Psychologists, Rose-Marie Charest, is not a member. It nevertheless believes that "there is a real problem" in the public sector. From 2004 to 2008, the number of vacancies has more than doubled in the health system. "Whatever motivated psychologists to go into the public network, such as working conditions and continuing education, has disappeared. Our concern is that one day the occupation is over and that only Quebecers who have money can afford these services, "she said. Unlike disciplines such as occupational therapy, audiology, or social work, whose practice requires a master's or bachelor's degree must have a Ph.D. since 2006 to be a psychologist in Quebec. Psychologists spend an average of about five years in school, and began their careers later. But this situation is not regarded by the public network, denounced Mr. Courtemanche. "We calculated that after 25 years of career psychologists public network will have won $ 500 000 less than many high school graduates. By studying longer, accumulating debts, not seniority. It was a great catching up, says Courtemanche. This is not surprising that in the network, it is increasingly difficult to fill positions. "Nearly half of the public network of psychologists working part time just to have as customers pay more to private. "We must find ways to attract more candidates to the public, remember those we have and encourage people to work full time," says Mr. Courtemanche. Ms. Charest said about it that only way to ensure universal access to psychological care is to strengthen the public schools: "Studies have shown that having access to psychological services can reduce health care, thus reducing costs. It should be seen. "Last spring, Mr. Courtemanche has challenged the government on the issue, but it has not been answered. Before Christmas, the committee has voted to undertake pressure tactics. In the summer, psychologists public network will continue to make their clinical services, but everything else, including university functions cease, "says Courtemanche. The courses could be canceled. "There is a problem and we want to discuss it," said Courtemanche. We do not want to cry in public. But we want to explain the situation. It is hoped that these resources will wake up people who do not seem to understand now. "At the Ministry of Health, explains that a meeting with psychologists is expected next week. www.cyberpresse.ca/actualites/quebec-canada/sante/201101/10/01-4358844-psychologues-du-reseau-public-de-plus-en-plus-de-postes-vacants.php

Dolphins serving persistence. "The most rewarding experience in all this is being able to help children realize their dream, then give them the opportunity to meet other enthusiasts from around the world and they all have the same point in common! "said France Lafleur, head of DolphinLab. France Lafleur, a lecturer at the Faculty of Education, realized his dream in April: one to share his passion for dolphins with a group of fourteen children in Quebec who have been trained in marine biology as part of an intensive course offered at the Dolphin Research Center in Grassy Key, Florida . Its own initiative, France Lafleur has built a relationship of trust with the leadership of the research center over the past seven years. "Students participating in DolphinLab last April were the first Canadians to receive their certification introduction to marine biology, and Canada has been the pioneer for three sessions of e-learning with the Dolphin Research Center. Since then, Other schools are trying to repeat this initiative, "says the passionate friendly dolphins. This exclusive research center with a second initiative involves unusual that will allow other students to follow Quebec's experience with the dolphins, in direct communication through new information technologies. Thus, the Dolphin Research Center will host, from 16 to 22 April 2011, the second group of students from Quebec. Then a group of adults will follow the May 7 to 13, given the numerous requests. In addition, Quebec students attend classes through videoconferencing to workouts Research and Dolphin Research Center and then conduct interviews with specialists dolphins. These introductory courses in marine biology and the life of dolphins will be held during spring break from February 26 to March 4, 2011. www.usherbrooke.ca/longueuil/accueil/nouvelles/nouvelles-details/article/14063

University of Sherbrooke. Applications for internships abroad are booming. Internships abroad are so popular at the University of Sherbrooke that a person has been hired to handle requests.

"Young people now they want to do things. We [...], older generations, you could just for a few years of hearing about France, to hear of Europe and then to see pictures, then watch movies, "says she said.

Documentation and Training
Following my presentation at the conference agenda in 2010, I offer two workshops on the use of eidetic imagery http:// www.image-eidetique.com/ applied to the field of career choices. This offer is however limited to guidance counselors. The imaging refers to a system of internal representations that supports a set of cognitive and affective processes in high demand in a process of making decisions about its future. I am particularly interested in the phenomenon of eidetic image which, according Ahsen, comes in the form of internal experience vivid, sensual, vibrant and intentional. The eidetic image occupies a particular space between perception and memory. In its expression of form, such image reveals a close relationship between history developmental of the person and the construction of his figures of interest. The eidetic image is closely linked to the essence of the subject and to experience his sense of identity. In practice guidance, you have surely seen clients who were struggling to find words to describe themselves. A bit like if they do not know. Yet moments later in your interview you to present content information, such as a vocational profile as an example, and they were able to spontaneously say things like: "I see myself or I do not see myself in there ...; Yes, it looks like me ... .. No, not me ... etc.. . This way of treating academic and career information from global impressions synthetic condensed suggests another mode of apprehension and perception of his internal experience of which the eidetic image as a component part of the experience immediately felt. Seen from this perspective, pictorial representation spontaneous implicit influence the perception process trades and professions and how possessed by the client to mobilize thereafter. The eidetic image supports this process more or less conscious projection of his internal images transposition and its implicit representation of an external object perceived as a monograph. By working from the perspective of dynamic modes of operation of the image, I am still amazed at the unveiling of intentionality manifested in the process of emergence of these images. The latter run by themselves to reach a place that reveals a theme and a still significant challenge of the process of ongoing consultation. Psychological and neuropsychological level, the image formation precedes the choice of the word, concept and thought. In other words, we feel our state if we recognize implicitly approximated before they can develop it with words and concepts. When we learn to work with the image, we emerge momentarily from the schema of rational thought hypothetico-deductive to enter a different perspective of work more right hemispheric, synthetic, emotional and creative. One of my perception is that some (I stress some) of the problem of practice guidance is that throughout history, for all sorts of reasons and contingencies, we have glorified the so-called more rational functions language and being wary of certain mental functions and emotional processes that are inherent and necessary to develop a future project. It is fascinating to observe how the intentionality and imagination come together in the process of image formation when the person scripted a projection of self and his future life. The account of the customer based on this process of emergence of a pictorial narrative that evolves to a destination but often approached relatively unknown to the person as the writer in his creative writing. On the merits, when the client tries to transpose what he believes to be in contact with the social representation pictorial (or stereotypical) a profession, he said at the same time it is and how he intends to show its presence in the world. A guidance approach orientation has at least this singularity in our discipline: it is a process that is lived in the present moment an interview at the same time it is futuristic in the sense that the subject must anticipate statements unrealized self, the world and its future. The report to the present and future is an important dimension of policy work. Agree a contact time to lift themselves and of his desire are necessary for process emergence of image and the development of a project. This is often one of the first resistance we encounter in consultation in this age of instant and quick technology. I would make an analogy with the process of making wine. Time itself is essential for fermentation of the ingredients. Implemented in practice guidance, I really wonder how someone can get to own their choice and feel a sense of identity, if it does not ferment enough. And about this metaphor, I can not help to find similarities between our professional role and that of a winemaker. We do the best possible monitoring of internal and external constituent factors involved. We consider the procedure to be performed depending on the context and possibilities. Thus seen, the choice of training or profession based on a configuration of internal representations that reveal a scene of a pictorial type of relationship to life. In short, choosing a profession is to imagine his life and scripting using a process of image formation. It is an act of creation that becomes significant when the enactment allows the essence of the subject to express existence. In summer 2006, we published an interview about the process of image formation and occupational choice in the newsletter of the French website of Contact Point http://www.orientaction.ca/ In 2005, the Carrefour de l'orientation was initiating this approach www.acoc.info/accueil/affichage.asp?B=960 If you are interested to register, complete the form return it without me deposit.

PAY EQUITY The employees now have a duty to complain. The Pay Equity Act became unforgivable for offending companies since 1 January. Employers have an interest in the Pay Equity Act seriously because since Jan. 1 must have completed the exercise otherwise they will face high bills that must be paid to their employees and fines of up to $ 45 000. The Quebec government therefore considers that those who employ 10 people or more have had sufficient time to comply with the provincial law adopted in 1996, which aims to redress differences in compensation in respect of sex. "Since Jan. 1, employees of companies have not only the right but the duty to denounce their employer who did not complete this exercise of salary adjustment. The Act stipulates that they have until May 30th to enjoy arrangements ", said Louise Marchand, past president of the Commission on Pay Equity has completed its mandate. Ms. Marchand estimated that approximately 45% of employers concerned are still missing from this employer liability. These are mainly private SMEs. "But we've been tremendously busy past 18 months, we believe that the amended law has convinced many to achieve this year to 31 December 2010, "said Ms. Marchand. It must be said that the provisions of the Act has teeth. The companies that do not will not pay only salary adjustments in question but retroactive to 2001, plus interest, plus additional compensation that can reach 8% of the debt. In addition, the Act has been amended several times, provides penalties on corporate executives who refuse to comply. The fines can reach $ 45 000, following the criminal proceedings that are on the agenda of the commission 2011 for recalcitrant employers. "Obviously, companies have been slow to implement this law will pay a lot more than those who did before. It is estimated, on average, that the invoice represented 1.2% of payroll for employers who are compliance before 2006, "said Ms. Marchand. Ms. Marchand said that this is the role of employees to file their complaint to the commission. "The legislature intended to empower employees who have five months to address the Committee to take advantage of retroactivity until 2001," she says. After June 1, workers will be entitled only five years of retroactivity. http://lejournaldequebec.canoe.ca/journaldequebec/actualites/quebec/archives/2011/01/20110110-114114.html

music like drugs, sex and good food for the brain? The pleasure felt while listening to music is underpinned by cerebral mechanisms similar to those involved in the response to good food or drugs, according to a Canadian study published in the journal Nature Neuroscience. The experience of pleasure is characterized in all these situations by the release of the neurotransmitter dopamine in the reward system known whose role is seen as reinforcing certain behaviors necessary for survival (like food) or maintenance motivation. www.psychomedia.qc.ca/musique/2011-01-09/musique-drogue-sexe-bonne-bouffe-et-cerveau

Employment Opportunities for 2011
The year 2010 was relatively good for jobs in Quebec. 2011 could be better, however, some sectors with good prospects. In the construction sector, despite the economic downturn, jobs are numerous. Several projects will also be released in 2011 including the Turcot Interchange. Information technology: The Quebec companies have been rather timid in recent years investment in information technology. Companies should therefore make upgrades to their fleet computer, which will give a lot of work with computer scientists, systems analysts and programmers. Do not forget the video games industry which has not experienced a slowdown. Financial Services: All the financial services sector is shortage of manpower in recent years. So there are lots of vacancies in services and the sale of financial products. Health: The health sector is also experiencing a shortage of manpower. The needs are becoming increasingly important particularly because the aging population. Aerospace: Several investments have been announced in the sector in 2010. We therefore expect a good year 2011. Mining: The mining industry saw its greatest period of growth. Within five years, about 5,600 positions will be filled. Manufacturing: The manufacturing sector outlook is less positive. There have been several closures in 2010, including that of Electrolux. However, are expected to employment growth for next year. http://argent.canoe.ca/lca/affaires/quebec/archives/2010/12/20101230-104235.html

Quebec public sector. Measures to retain the baby boomers in the workplace. Major changes to pension plans in the Quebec public sector come into force on 1 January. The maximum number of years of service for calculating retirement pension from 35 to 38 years. Working three years longer, officials and teachers who retire will receive a benefit equal to 76% of average pensionable earnings, against 70% for 35 years of service. The Conseil du Trésor du Québec, Michelle Courchesne, hopes this measure to retain a portion of baby boomers who will retire en masse. It removes the pressure on the regime, because these people will contribute 6% more, and while they contribute more, we are not obliged to pay their monthly pension. Minister Courchesne believes that one third of future pensioners may choose to work three more years, although she does not know their exact number. She said the measure is no cost for pension and allows even small economies. www.radio-canada.ca/nouvelles/Economie/2010/12/31/004-fonctionnaires-quebec-retraite.shtml

behaviors that explain the difference in life expectancy between men and women. Smoking is the main reason for the difference in life expectancy between women and men in Europe, followed by alcohol consumption, according to a British study published in the journal Tobacco Control (the British Medical Journal Group). It explains 40% to 60% of this difference. Alcohol consumption explain another 20%. Some experts have argued that the difference was due to biology or the fact that women are more likely to seek medical but the results of this large study suggests that the main responsible for the longevity gap is indeed smoking. www.psychomedia.qc.ca/toxicomanies/2011-01-18/les-comportements-qui-expliquent-la-difference-de-longevite-entre-hommes-et-femmes
