Selecting a Major or Career

The curriculum for this course includes:

• Career tests
• Values clarification
• Self-esteem
• Decision-making
• Site of control
• Employability skills

Life Career Planning is a three-credit elective course.

Discover or Choices

Both Discover and Choices are interactive computer programs that incorporate an interest inventory for students to complete.  The results of the inventory relate students' interests to components that make up the world of work.  A list of careers identified with these components is generated and available to the student to do further research.

Contact the Career Development Center to schedule an appointment.

Career Test Battery

The Career Test Battery consists of a personality test, an abilities test and two interest inventories. There is a group interpretation of the test results, lead by a counselor.  These tests are for exploratory purposes and are descriptive rather than prescriptive measures.

Cost is $20 for SCC students, $50 for non-students.

See a counselor/advisor for a referral to take the test battery.

Career Counseling

Career counselors at CEPD provide professional assistance in exploration and decision-making tasks related to choosing a major and occupation, transitions into the world of work, or further professional training. 

Contact the Career Development Center for additional resource material on career exploration.
