  career exploration and decision-making
  processes to help individuals achieve their
  maximum educational and career potential under
  a holistic life-span perspective. The goal of the
  Career Development component is to offer a
  process that helps bring individuals to a decision
  regarding academic major or career choice.

 

  The Career Counselor encourages students to
  utilize the resources available in the Student
  Development Center. The Center uses a
  structured process which consists of:

Lab
  • DISCOVER, a computer-based career planning program used to help students learn more about themselves, careers, educational choices, financial aid and transfer institutions.

  • Practical activities to assist students in clarifying and defining their goals and interests.
  • Detailed job descriptions
  • Required training for occupations
  • Employment market outlook
  • National Salaries
  • Personality/Career Assessments
  • Interviews
  • Inventories

  The Career Development Center offers an individualized planning process; in addition, an
  array of information is available about students' interests, abilities, experience and values, and
  how these fit in a step-by-step approach to planning a career.
