Career Counseling

What is Career Counseling?
Career Counseling is designed to help students explore potential degrees, careers, occupations, and schools. A counselor will work with a student to assess interests, personality, values, and strengths.  Students who know their likes and dislikes will have a better exploration experience looking into degrees, schools, careers, and/or occupations. A counselor may have a student take assessments, such as interest inventories, personality tests, and/or career quizzes.  None the assessments are designed to tell a student what they could or should do relating to a degree, career, or occupation. They will, however, help a student gain insight into themselves; help them to organize their thoughts and ideas about what they want to do or where they want to go.
