Candidates no longer require psychological professional requirements and work experience requirements. For candidates, they only need to have a diploma or junior professional title recognized by Xuexin.com, and students at school can also directly register for the exam through the exclusive entrance.

In many online materials, candidates can't see any age requirement, which makes many people mistakenly think that there is no age requirement for psychological counselors to apply. In fact, the latest official policy clearly states that applicants must be at least 20 years old and can apply before retirement age.

Counselors are not allowed to register individuals, and the entrance to individual registration is closed. All candidates need to know where the official entrance of the province is. Only candidates who register through the official entrance can register, and the staff will review the information.

In the past, psychological counselors studied independently, but since 2023, all candidates have to study through official courses, which are divided into live courses and recorded courses. Candidates can choose the appropriate learning methods according to their own needs.
