Career Guidance & Development

What is career?
A person’s course or progress through life. It also pertains to his occupational or profession that usually involves special training or formal education and is considered to be a person’s lifework. (Oxford English Dictionary)

Career development is an ongoing process of gaining knowledge and improving skills that will help an individual to establish a career plan
Today’s Generation Students

• Never plan for the future
• Follow the crowd
• Choose by influence of others.
• Accept the parent’s verdict (decision) by force
• Get tempted by current trends
• Jump into any career
• Lack motivation
• Fail to ‘’discover their lives’’
• Live in a fantasy world

You raise valid points about students drifting into careers without direction. One way to counter that is by looking at concrete job details

Exploring specific roles like this helps turn vague ideas into solid plans
