Career assessments

Career assessments can help you find the answers to these and other common questions:

  • How do I decide what type of career goals are right for me?
  • What type of work environment fits me best?
  • What field of study could I pursue to reach my goals?
  • What do I do if I'm not happy in this program anymore?
  • What if my career goals are different from what my family thinks they should be?
  • What if I make a choice and then change my mind?

What to expect

The goal of career consulting is to give you the opportunity to begin exploring the elements of a career that make sense for you. The results can offer you insight into the type of tasks you may enjoy, and the kind of things that are important to you and some options for career fields and environments that may best fit your personality, interests, values and skills.

During your first appointment, we will discuss your concerns and decide what course of action may be best for you. We will then schedule additional appointments, career assessments or provide a referral to another resource as appropriate.

Who is eligible?

Career Consulting is available to all students registered in a full-time, post-secondary program and alumni. Make an appointment if you are interested in:

  • Exploring your career goals with a consultant
  • Learning about resources available to help you on your career and education path
  • Participating in career assessments to help you learn more about yourself and set realistic career goals.
