Career Planning
The staff will assist students in making academic, occupational, and personal decisions. They provide students with supportive services including career information and related programs of study, computer-assisted career planning, interests and abilities testing, job-search skills, self-help decision making skills, and occupational literature and materials. Work-related information includes conditions of work, requirements, estimated salary, and employment outlook. If appropriate, OTC staff will refer students to local agencies for additional services.
