Career Guidance Program

  • No more expensive, long, boring Psychometric Evaluations!
  • We offer a fun, interactive and cost effective tool to Discover Your Career!
  • Brainwave’s skilled trainers facilitate learners through the Discover Your Career programme. Through this programme  the learner will discover the world of work, their interests, thinking styles and personality. They will be guided to the most suitable Career Area for their personal profile.

The importance of Career Guidance

Choosing a career is one of the most important decisions a person will ever make and yet within the education system there is about no vocational support for learners choosing their final subjects and or careers. This weakness in the educational system results in high unnecessary costs for countries and businesses, as well as social discontent and hardship. The drop-out rate for the first year tertiary students stands on 35% of which the lack of self- and career knowledge seems to be the underlining reason. This leads to low morale, disinterest and de-motivation, translating into poor performances and bad service levels.

With this in mind the Discover Your Career(DYC) workbook was designed to respond directly to these concerns. The workbook is a rich source of knowledge and decision making skills. In terms of knowledge, learners engage in a series of activities through which they discover their interests, their thinking style and their personality type. They then align this self knowledge to careers that are suitable for their unique self. In this way, learners are guided towards choosing subjects that support their future career choices. This sense of future tends to increase learners’ sense of motivation and purpose and encourages them to engage with their schooling on a more serious level.

Benefits of the Programme

  • It is cost effective. The career programme cost much less than conventional standardised testing.
  • It does not have to be administered and evaluated by a psychologist or Psychomotrist. It can be administered and evaluated by an educator/facilitator.
  • On completion of the programme, each learner keeps the programme material and receives a report summarising his/her unique personal profile and recommended subjects and career fields.
  • The programme compliments the Life Orientation syllabus and can be used as an additional resource in the classroom.
  • The activities form part of the learner’s assessment portfolio.
  • The programme empower learners and help them to set realistic and appropriate goals in terms of career and subject choices.
  • The material is user-friendly, colourful and interactive.

EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT AND SCHOOL READINESS PROGRAMMES

The value of Early Childhood Development and getting learner’s school ready cannot be underestimated and the more input at this level the better the future performance of each learner. At present companies are funding secondary and tertiary projects as a way to improving education. We, however, believe that you cannot heal a wound by covering it with plasters. We have to clean the “wound” which means you have to start from the bottom upwards.

Brainwave Careers is passionate about delivering exceptional teacher and parent training. We also invest time in performing school readiness testing as we believe the earlier we detect barriers to learning the better.

Between all our members and partners we have performed upwards of 3000 plus school readiness assessments including parent feedbacks. As part of our school readiness programme we also offer parental and teacher support.

This programme involves training teachers or unemployed youth to assist with the development of young children in the following developmental areas:

  • Gross and fine motor
  • Language
  • Auditory Perception
  • Visual Perception
  • Problem Solving

Included is the identification of learning difficulties and School Readiness screening.
