Career Counseling

Career Counseling is designed to assist individuals in decision-making tasks related to choosing a major or tentative occupational field. 

 Career Assessment

Career Assessment helps you to learn more about yourself, but it does not provide magic answers. Assessment can help provide focus for exploration and information gathering, confirm ideas you are considering and may assist in generating occupational options or narrowing down choices you may be considering. In consultation with the counselor you will be able to identify the most appropriate assessment strategies for your individual situation.
