Abstract

Psychology has experienced significant development in recent years, as well as achieving an increased presence in various fields of professional activity, including education. In Spain, however, progress in Educational Guidance has been unfortunately slow. This has been due to, among other factors, its pseudo-professionalized state. The purpose of this article is to highlight the need for specialized training to correct the imbalance between the training currently received by these workers and the professional skills and competences which are required today of the educational psychologist. Specifically, it presents a proposal that supports the need for a specific master´s degree in Educational Psychology, rather than existing Teacher Training specializing in Educational Guidance.
