Career Counselling

 

The world is full of opportunities and very few students are aware of this. There is a plethora of professions one can take up. It is here that counselling and career guidance becomes very pertinent. The Counsellor helps them make the right choices and identify where their aptitudes and interests lie. Students of Grades IX, X, XI and XII take a psychometric test and are then guided on the basis of the results obtained to make an informed decision about their choice of subjects/career..

Group information sessions, as well as individual advising sessions, are offered on a regular basis to discuss issues such as appropriate programme, university/college selection, scholarship research, making the transition from school to university/college, and related career planning.

Numerous representatives from Indian and foreign universities visit IPS and hold discussions on:
