  1. 1958

  2. 1966

  3. 1975

The correct answer is: 1966

The National Employment Counseling Association (NECA) was established in 1966. This organization was created to address the growing need for professional support and resources in the field of employment counseling, particularly as job markets were evolving and the landscape of employment opportunities became increasingly complex. NECA has played a significant role in promoting best practices, providing education, and advocating for employment counselors and their clients. The choice of 1966 as the correct answer reflects the historical context in which vocational guidance and employment assistance began to be recognized as essential components of a comprehensive counseling framework.
