01.07.2020 Advice to parents regarding their children`s career choices
There are many psychological methods to help your child effectively choose their future profession and plan their career, deciding what steps to take to move forward. Psychologists at the Abai KazNPU offer three simple steps to help you decide.
Step 2: Analyse your child`s career chart.
Talk to your child about her/his hobbies. Ask your child to talk about her/his favorite subject at school. Talk about your child`s hobbies and extra curricular activities. Pay attention to your child`s progress and praise more often. During the discussions, listen and support what your child has a special interest in.
Do not ask for your choice and decide what your child should do. It is better to explain what special needs to be done now. The results of a test or questionnaire that is presented in a magazine are not by scores, but by the professions your child is interested in. Give as much information as possible about the different specialties. To show unclear solutions. Do not be forced to study for a diploma. Studying this topic with your child helps you make the right career choice.
Step 3. Career planning.
Once you have found an interesting career, ask your child the following questions: What exactly does the chosen institution of higher education offer? How can I reconsider the career of this profession? What qualifications will I get once I graduate from this profession? By analyzing these questions, your child can give a voice to the future of the profession. The number of people who enjoy the profession is growing and society is moving forward. Remember that many jobs these days require certain qualifications. Therefore, it is necessary to constantly improve knowledge within your profession. |
