Careers Guidance Committee

Through integrating career and life planning education into the school’s curriculum and organizing a wide range of activities, the Careers Guidance Committee assists students to develop self-awareness, to set goals for tertiary education and career aspirations, to make informed choice with reference to their interests, abilities and orientations and to equip themselves for their future workplace.

1. Career and Life Planning Education

The Career Guidance Committee has officially launched the Career and Life Planning Education since 2014. It is launched gradually to help students cope with the challenges from further studies, as well as to know their individual needs better. We believe that through better understanding of their abilities, aptitudes, resources and restrictions, together with their further awareness of the current conditions, acknowledgement of various opportunities and the prospects of diverse careers, students would be able to set reasonable expectations for choosing what is the most suitable for them in their future workplace.

Its purpose is to let students know, appreciate and affirm themselves, so as to enhance their motivation for career planning.
