' The correlation of high school profiles and students’ choice to enroll in and their future career prospects

Session

Education and Development

Description

Career choice is an important decision that youngsters have to make. The decision is not supposed to be made after finishing high school since high school normally is the crucial peak where this decision has to be made. Many high school students start thinking about their future careers at very early stages, but whether they make the relevant decision and the appropriate link between the high school profiles the students choose to enroll in and their career prospects are in question. Most people need some preparation before applying for university studies, but in the real life there seems to be a lack of awareness by the students to better explore their interests, instead, they register in any school without making the appropriate link to their future career (Torpey,2015). Choosing a career path is a huge part of a young man’s or woman’s life. The career path students choose, will affect how they will live the rest of their life. A lot of students go through high school and college without knowing what career path they want or are good at. Before students can pick a career path they need to experience what that career is like and what it involves (Fizer, 2013). As the labor market becomes more specialized and economies demand higher levels of skill, governments and businesses are increasingly investing in the future of vocational education through publicly funded training organizations and subsidized apprenticeship or traineeship initiatives for businesses (Kelly, 2011).
