A student's career development relies on a quality career guidance program. Career guidance is a collaborative effort of guidance staff, teachers, family members, and community partners. These resources have been created to enhance the career guidance and counseling efforts in grades K-12. The resources are provided to assist with career awareness, career exploration, and career preparation of students with the objective of facilitating a successful transition into post-secondary opportunities and the 21st century global workplace.
