Career Guidance for: Learners / Students | Adults | Job Seekers | Career Coaching Sessions
1. Grade 8-12 Learners / Students
The purpose of professional career testing for learners and students (typically ages 16-22) is to help them make the right decisions about grade 12 subjects, graduate studies, and initial career choices.
Do you (or does your son/daughter) need to:
- Choose subjects to determine a direction for graduate studies?
- Develop a clear understanding of skills, strengths, interests and giftedness?
- Determine which tertiary institution will be the best fit?
- Identify a career path to pursue after school?
With the cost of education these days, it makes sense to make your investment count! Professional career guidance can help you make the decisions that will prepare you not only to experience educational and career success, but to live God's calling for your life! I guarantee professional guidance and feedback to help you make the best career decisions.
My one-on-one career coaching sessions shall guide you on your way to:
- Discover your God-given design and the work you were designed to do by a proven and systematic approach.

2. Adults: "Quarter-Life" (25-35) and "Mid-Life" (40s and beyond)
- Do you sense there may be a better career for your skills, interests, and personality?
- Have you lost enthusiasm for your job and are not sure what to do?
- Do you believe God might be calling you to do something else with your life?
- Would you like the opportunity to evaluate how well your current job fits you and/or how you might make some minor adjustments for greater work satisfaction?

I shall lead you to:
- Identify key aspects of your unique, God-given design.
