Knowledge system development in school students through career guidance

The study reveals the concept, goals, objectives, and performance of career guidance in school. The authors propose methods and techniques for macro- and micro-awareness of students about occupations and employment functions. Career guidance is a system of science-based measures to assist a person in searching for a professional identity/building a career strategy. Career guidance in school is to help students understand the main characteristics of professional activity and learn to analyze occupations comparing them with each other. Before choosing a career, everyone should have sufficient knowledge about his identity and professional strengths, the qualities to be compensated for or overcome. The professional identity and self-determination are available if the students’ evaluation criteria for understanding that their physical, psychophysical characteristics and moral standing meet job requirements are developed.
