Career guidance plays an important role in supporting students' interests, strengths and aspirations. All of us have some certain significant goals or aspirations that we hope to achieve in the future. A well-constructed career plan can assist in reaching these goals and eventually to success. Choosing a career path is one of the most important decision-making ventures in life. However, with various external pressures, selecting the right career can be fairly difficult in this competitive environment.

Many students make career decision hastily without much thought and end up unsatisfied with the job or the profession they are in. The stress and frustration of the job may lead to depression on a person. Career counselling can be very effective in empowering students to realize their inner potential, skills and interest in choosing a satisfying career. In many western countries, career counselling is considered to be a foremost step to be taken before deciding on a permanent career. Career counsellor aims to encourage the youth for making future decisions by sharing awareness of career opportunities and possibilities according to their skills and interests in the chosen course.
