Student Counseling Services offers a variety of services to assist you in working through career-related concerns.
The Student Counseling Services offers career counseling and assessment to help you begin setting career goals. Career counseling sessions are free, and confidential. Whether choosing a major, exploring options, or addressing a problem related to career plans career counseling can help. Career assessment can also help you expand your options, or confirm choices you are considering. Phone 438-3655 to request an initial appointment.
During the first eight weeks of each fall and spring semester, Student Counseling Services offers a 1 credit-hour class called Career Choice Class (IDS 106). This course will show you how to assess your interests, abilities and values; how to gather information about occupations, and how to make career decisions. As part of the course, students take interests tests, and work with SIGI 3. Experiential learning activities are designed to assist students in learning the steps in career decision-making.
To work on career planning from our Web page go to the Career Self Help section. Here you will find step by step ideas to help you explore your options, clarify your goals, and begin taking steps to commit to a plan of action. You will find helpful links to explore majors and careers.
SIGI 3, pronounced “siggy three,” is a user-friendly computer-based system available to Illinois State students that offers information about careers, values and interests. SIGI 3 will give you an opportunity to develop a list of occupations to explore based on your responses. Visit the Career Center Web page to use this resource.
