- Sessions will take place on a computer, generally in a classroom setting.
- The facilitator will take you through interactive activities that help you identify your values and set goals. You will also find resources and tools for career exploration and development.
- Some of the activities include:

- The Myers Briggs Type Inventory explains different personality types and shows you how to relate to them in your daily life, whether at school, on a job, in a career, or in personal relationships.
