    Futuristic outcomes and perspectives of the Cell                                                      
Career Guidance is a counselling programme designed to help students choose the right career path based on their educational and professional choices. It is a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the knowledge, skills, information, and experience to identify career options available. A career advisor or counsellor is an expert in exploring students' skill sets and interest levels and suggesting a balanced solution combining the merits of both.The career advisor relies on career interest or aptitude tests as part of the discovery process to identify factors influencing career interests, abilities, and values. In essence, a career advisor sets realistic career goals for each student. Technology and computers are some of the most emerging careers in today’s scenario. It is the duty of these career counselors to aware students of these changes. Having complete knowledge will prevent students from making decisions in a vacuum of information. Many aspirants do not know about their life plans while some of them fail to trace relevant steps. Thus, career guidance will resolve all these dilemmas.
It is never too late to plan for your career unless you do not take a step forward. A minor decision like stream selection can certainly affect your life outcomes. Ignorance is never bliss in any scenario, rather brings more struggle. We are often clueless about our careers, or interests. It might not look like a big deal but will make you regret it after time passes. You still have the power to turn your barren pathway into a prosperous one. In the end, do not rush with your career choices. Adopt the relevant strategies and keep exploring. You never know what career or subject can fit the best for you. Exposure is the first step to become professionally aware.
