- Know and appreciate themselves as individuals with unique interests and attitudes;
- Relate effectively with others, by developing positive interpersonal skills;
- Develop an appropriate educational plan that matches their individual interests and abilities;
- Explore career alternatives taking into account personal growth, and increased decision-making skills, when considering career plans.
Counsellors are available to assist students in locating and interpreting information that they may require when making decisions about careers, course selections, and other personal concerns.
