Why Is Career Counseling Important For Students?

It is sometimes difficult for a graduating high school student to predict what type of training or education is going to be appropriate after high school. What should I do? Should I go to college or a training school? What will I be good at? What should I major in? These are typical questions of high school students nearing graduation or newly graduated.

Choosing a college major or training area that proves not to be satisfactory wastes tuition costs, and time invested in acquiring knowledge and skills you may never want to use in your career.

Deciding not to pursue higher education (because you don't know what you want to do) can also be a costly mistake if you pass up scholarship opportunities to attend a post-secondary school soon after graduation.

High school career counseling includes the Career Abilities Profile, Personality Assessments, Interest Inventories, Values Clarification and more! Being informed about your interests, abilities and personality characteristics helps you make better decisions about your future! Ann knows what it takes to succeed and the role of education in career development.
