Education & Career Guidance

Objectives

Hwa Chong Institution's (High School) career guidance program aims to enhance students' career journey through:

  • creating self awareness
  • stimulating student's participation in school activities & keeping a portfolio of their progress
  • creating awareness of the relationship between academic studies and the occupation

Rationale

It is important to recognize that career guidance is critical in preparing students for their future work life and as such, understanding their career journey should start as young as in the lower secondary years. Students need to be aware of their strengths and weaknesses and how to use these strengths to their advantage. They also need to make subject choices that reflect their interests and strengths and not to close any doors to possible future pathways.
