Career Focus is a course devoted to college and career planning. Through guided research and personal interest inventories,
students develop personal goals and identify professional interests. The course encourages students who have already
chosen their desired career path to take a careful look at all the options available within that career while others may focus
on selecting a suitable career path. Work environments, work styles, aptitudes and interests are examined through the use of
digital programs such as Xello. Students also devote time to exploring post-secondary opportunities and other important
factors regarding their futures.
