It was divided into three sections, A,B and C with a total of 43 questions. The consistency reliability of the research instrument was checked through a pilot test done on the Air Traffic Controllers from Subang Air Traffic Control Centre. The Cronbach Alpha coefficient test was done for thie questions constructed and the Alpha Score obtained was 0.7708. The analysis of the data was carried by using the SPSS for Windows Ver.11. Descriptive such as percentage, mean and median scores showed 86.2 percent agree to the need of the counseling and guidance unit. The study showed that there is a requirement for the trainees of the Air Traffic Control Officers to have the counseling and guidance unit in reducing problems faced while undergoing training.
