Career Exploration Planning Guide for Students

Career exploration is the key to unlocking opportunities and helping students discover the route that is perfect for them. Simply put, it’s the process of finding career options that align with a student’s interests and skills.

Think of it like a GPS—exploring careers gives you a map of possible routes to your future. By exploring different career paths, students gain insight into what they enjoy, where their strengths lie, and how their values match different types of work.

Starting early gives students the time to tailor their high school and post-secondary experiences toward their long-term goals. Researching careers now also helps them avoid feeling rushed or unprepared later. Plus, it helps identify which classes they’ll need and which aren’t as important for their chosen path.
