(This Web site is based on a Guidance-Oriented Approach to Learning project started with
the guidance counsellor at St. Laurent Adult Education Centre, English Montreal School Board.)
 

  1. Career planning - determining one's career path using Career Exploration Activities.

  2. Learning and applying word processing and spreadsheet skills to various Career Exploration Activities.

  3. Creating a personal portfolio containing the results of all the Career Exploration Activities.

Going on a trip without a map will lead you somewhere, but maybe not where you want to go. Choosing a career path without adequate exploration can be very similar. This Web site will help the user to determine his/her potential career path by following a series of outlined steps. The more steps followed, the more accurate the potential career path will be. The activities outlined will guide the user through these steps so that the personal information obtained will lead him/her to the right path. This process does not guarantee a correct or final choice but it will give one the skills required to manage one's career over a lifetime.
 

  1. Before starting these activities, set up your career portfolio folder on your computer or on your diskette.

  2. Every document that you create in these activities must have: the name of the activity, your name and be formatted. Be sure to use the spell and grammar checkers frequently.

  3. Save soon, save often!

  4. Before you print any of your work, go to print preview and make any necessary adjustments in Page Setup.

  5. Have your work approved by your teacher before you print.
