Education as the Road to Career Advancement
Attaining a degree can be the fulfillment of a lifelong goal, demonstrate to an employer that you are willing to invest in yourself to gain a promotion, increase your self-confidence, and improve your reasoning and decision-making abilities.
Sometimes it is difficult to understand what education path you should follow to best prepare for a certain career. Your career counselor can give you more information and work with you to develop an education and career plan. A career counselor can help you:
- understand your interests, abilities, skills, values, and goals through career assessment.
- gain knowledge about specific careers, occupations, and related areas of study through career exploration.
- make decisions about your career to help you make a transition to a more satisfying career.
- develop a career plan that may include enrolling in Penn State Continuing Education programs.
