What do you do when you have no idea what you want to do for a living? Do you jump from job to job? Enroll in college just because you are not sure of the direction you want to go in? That is an expensive choice. 

There are many different aspects that go into finding the right balance between what you wish to do, the steps to making it to your dream job, the financial commitment and so much more. Grab your notebook and let’s get started. 

This course is not β€œshould I be a teacher or a salesman,” this course is about narrowing down the field based on your educational goals, financial aspects and your passions. 

The videos are shorter than a live class. Your child is welcome to pause, rewatch and take notes. Since this is not a live class with interaction, all of the information can be presented in a shorter time frame. Thus making it more informative and easier for students to sit through.
Learning Goals
We will be narrowing the field, when it comes to our goals, aspirations and reality of how to decide what path to take when choosing a career.
