Career & Guidance Counselling
Why meet with a guidance counsellor?
CEGEP students will be making decisions and reflecting on their career options. Although the decision-making process is not a one-time decision for life, students feel the pressure to make the right decision and need support to explore their options and get a better sense of what they are looking for.
A career path is shaped by multiple decisions over time. Who we think we are continues evolving as we have new experiences and meet new people. Having doubts is normal.
