Choosing a career or college major is a very confusing and often overwhelming experience for high school and college students. One of the major reasons for the confusion is that most students know very little about the world of work. Another reason is that most people have very little understanding of their own vocational assets. Once you have a good idea about your vocational assets, you can compare your assets with those that are required of a variety of occupations. You will be able to review a number of possible college majors in another section of The Classroom where you will find job descriptions including the assets necessary for successful performance.
