Students will recognize the benefit of seeking advice from those experienced in specific career areas that interest them.

Students will engage in a ‘forward thinking’ exercise.

Students explore and discuss factors they should consider when they are planning a career path.

Students will realize that high salaries are not always equated with a great lifestyle.
