“I am obliged to the Eduvision team for helping and guiding the students of F.G College for Women, Kharian, with the help of this seminar”, Prof. Nasreen Bhutti said in her welcome speech. She said that career planning is one of those areas we need to pay attention to, the most.

Talking to the participants, Mr. Yousuf Almas, CEO Eduvision, defined the career planning as a continuous process that is done by considering the students aptitude, his/her desire, national and international circumstances, status of the different fields in the society and job market.

Mr. Yousuf Almas said that the process of career planning starts when a children desires of becoming a doctor or a pilot in his early life. “Choosing a career is the most crucial decision of anyone's life as it determines how you will spend your life, what you will be known as, what your lifestyle will be like, how much you will earn and what you will be doing. So career planning can be defined as the systematic way of achieving one’s objectives in a relatively long-term or lifelong job or occupation. Career planning is the main route which leads a person to the right path of success and honor to secure his/her future. In our society, career planning is a major problem faced by the students” he added.

“Career Planning is more successful if you link it with other parts of your life. What are your family and leisure activities? How is university education important to you? Are you more of a hands-on learner? Are you more successful as part of a team or can work better alone?” he further added. He narrated that the student ought to o know about his/her strengths and weaknesses and must also know about the different fields of study available. He said that while deciding about the field of study the student must consider his/her qualification, expense of the study and the institutions offering the required disciplines.
