[ 16 ] www.nacc.ca Career Connections 2015/16 [ 17 ] Many Factors to Consider When Choosing a Career Colle ge Asking key questions an important part of the selection process

[ 18 ] www.nacc.ca Choosing a career path can be confusing, intimidating and even overwhelming, but Canada’s many career colleges have a great deal of experience helping students of all ages make the right choices for their future. Whether you’re looking at career college as an option straight out of high school or considering it to retrain or upgrade your skills, there are a number of factors you’ll want to consider as you do your research. While it may sound like a lot to think about, the more you learn, the better prepared you’ll be to choose the right program at the right school for you.

Examine your talents and interests At the outset, it’s essential to take a serious look at your own talents and interests. If you like working with your hands, per- haps the skilled trades are a good option. If you’re a people person, there are many possibilities, ranging from business to esthetics to law and much more. Is math your thing? If so, accounting or computing might be right up your alley. If you’re squeamish, health care related fields might not be the best choice, but culinary arts might be a fit. Think about what qualities you have that you would like to apply to your career. What have you enjoyed about previous jobs or volunteering experiences? When you have brainstormed to develop a short list of programs that you feel might be a good fit, it’s a good idea to make an appointment to speak to one or more college officials to get the answers and details you need to make an informed decision. Instructors and administrators at career colleges share a common goal: they want to see every student achieve career success.

Make room for growth Speaking of career success, remember that you should be thinking both short and long term. Many fields have room for growth, so it’s important to consider both entry level and more advanced positions. Does a higher level position in management, for example, appeal to you? Be possible, arrange ahead of time to sit in on mind, of course, that every person’s experi- mindful that your interests and strengths a class or two in the program(s) you are ence will be different. could change as you accumulate knowl- interested in; this will help you get a better edge and experience, so it’s best to keep all sense of what to expect.
