Starting or changing a career can be quite a challenge. Without help, a person can easily become discouraged or overwhelmed. If you want to help others (or yourself) make sound career decisions and set realistic career goals, this course will set you on that path.

Careers Counselling involves more than just finding work for people.

 

Among other things, Careers Counselling may involve helping people:

•  identify the best job for their skills and interests
•  find any job to meet their personal and financial needs
•  find a better or more appropriate job for their situation
•  achieve job satisfaction through appropriate choices
•  plan and cope with career changes
•  better adapt to the workplace
•  improve their potential for advancement in the workplace
•  identify new career possibilities when circumstances change.

 

To be able to assist a person to understand:

• the diverse nature of employment opportunities
• the requirements for success in different types of jobs
• reasons that people hire and fire employees
• workplace conditions including contract law, industrial relations systems, health and safety issues, ethics- useful contacts among employers, government departments, funding bodies, professional associations, industry experts, etc
• factors that hinder or promote a person’s job-seeking effectiveness
• trends in the local job market.

 

A good Careers Counsellor must be impartial and objective.

Career Counselling is a valuable addition to your  teaching, counselling, management, life-coaching, or community services qualification. It can also improve parents' ability to help their children choose suitable career paths, or student's ability to plan their own career or career change.
