What is Career Counselling?
Career Counselling is a collaborative process that helps individuals explore their interests, strengths, values, and goals to make informed career and educational decisions. It provides a supportive space to address career-related concerns, navigate uncertainty, and build confidence in one’s professional journey.
Career counselling is not only for individuals who are unsure about their future—it can also benefit those seeking career growth, transitions, or greater satisfaction in their work.
