Graduating in 2008, I primarily assist people in job searching and career development. The programme provided excellent preparation for understanding career paths and overcoming common job search obstacles. I love my job and feel privileged to support individuals during significant life transitions.

Career Counselling and Guidance is essential in both school and professional life, aligning with our work in vocational guidance for individuals aged 18 to 70, where expertise is crucial.

This challenging yet engaging programme blends theory and practical training. It was crucial for my diverse work with university students, aiding their academic and career decisions. The programme is versatile, benefiting various career paths.
