Course of guidance (9)
I believe the answer is:
direction
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'course' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'guidance' is the second definition.
(I know that guidance can be written as direction)
'of' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for direction that I've seen before include "Course along which something moves" , "Administration" , "Course in which something is travelling" , "Decision-making" , "The way in which something is moving" .)
