CAREER COUNSELING PROGRAMME Every student faces the question of what next after class 12 th and 10 th. Firstly, to decide a stream, and then, to decide the graduation course! A helpless 16 year old is faced with the choice of three streams - Humanities, Science and Commerce, and the only career guidance he has is the opinion of his parents, his teacher s judgment based on his marks and the comments of his friends and neighbors. But is that much help sufficient for a child to base the foundation of his entire career? It is at this point that a career counselling for school students can help the child sail through these turbulent times. How career counseling works (Sources Internet) Career counselling involves scientifically developed aptitude tests and personality tests that helps the counselor give the best suited career advice to the student based on his report of his aptitude and personality. Human capacities are infinite and can never be measured, nor are we to judge of what one can do. Every person has unique characteristics, for everyone has his or her own strengths and weaknesses. The key is to identify these unique qualities is through career counselling. Making an Informed Choice To Choose a Career Career counselling sessions helps the students to know the pros and cons of the different streams and the career path it offers, thus the students can make an informed choice, and get a career assessment that helps avoid the risk of change in career path later in life. The importance of pinpointing the work cut out for each person can only be gauged when one sees the agony of extreme job misfits. Money is important, but not more than contentment. So a career counselling and guidance

7 is needed to help organize ones thoughts and ideas on decisions. It can boost the morale and confidence.
