As students enter the final stages of their school journey, the choices they make become increasingly significant in shaping their future careers and life paths. Our Career Counseling Program is a comprehensive initiative that helps senior school students explore various career options, understand their strengths and interests, and make strategic decisions about their future. Through personalized counseling, workshops, and resources, we equip students with the knowledge and skills to pursue their aspirations and achieve their full potential.

Key Components:

These sessions are tailored to the student’s unique interests, strengths, and academic performance, providing personalized advice on potential career paths and educational opportunities.

Counselors also help students navigate the complexities of international applications for those seeking education abroad.
3. Aptitude and Interest Assessments:
   • Understanding Strengths: We offer a range of standardized tests and assessments to help students identify their strengths, interests, and aptitudes. These assessments provide valuable insights into which career paths may be most suitable for each student.
   • Personal Reflection: Counselors review assessment results with students, encouraging them to reflect on their findings and consider how they align with their career aspirations.
4. Parent Involvement and Support:
   • Collaborative Approach: We believe that parents play a crucial role in their child’s career planning process.
