Where do I want to go from here? Who do I want to be? The EC School Counseling Team endeavors to help students begin to answer these questions through our Career Exploration Program. All students take the ACT inventory survey and the PSAT college major survey. As part of our Counseling Program, we help students access the career services offered online by ACT and SAT. Additionally, we have the students take a career interest inventory through Naviance their sophomore year. The following is a list of websites that have proven helpful for students in researching careers.
