About Psychological and Educational Guidance

Guidance is considered a crucial resource for solving students’ academic, psychological, social, and other problems. It helps in understanding their ideas, ambitions, and capabilities, and utilizing them to the fullest extent possible. This will lead to the creation of a new generation that leads society and builds the country on the best foundations that advanced nations are built upon.
