What DO you want to do for the rest of your life?

Hi folks,

One of the advantages of several of the scholarship opportunities is that they allow you to enter any field of student that you are interested in, so you are not limited to Engineering, Medicine or Commerce.

A student asked me about how to do some career planning so I'll pass along some ideas. First, I don't know of a career guidance online site that is Southern African, but this one--although it is Canadian--does have some good generic information about a wide variety of careers, and it is easy to navigate your way around in it.

Link to ALIS Career Cruising site

The other thing I suggest is that you spend quite a bit of time checking out the South African university sites because some of them do have links to career information within the various faculties' information.
