What a student does after his or her A/Levels is perhaps the single most important decision a young student will have made in their entire life so far. What they do in the few years following their A/Levels will largely determine what kind of life they have.
Make the right decision and a young boy or girl will be on the track to a rewarding and happy future doing a job they truly enjoy and which has excellent potential and opportunity for growth. This can mean prosperity, job satisfaction, and personal happiness. Take the wrong decision and it can mean an unhappy life doing something they don't like and possibly being on a dead-end, underpaid career path.
Unfortunately, most students (and their parents) leave education and career planning until the very last minute - usually until after receiving their results. Certainly, exam results are an important milestone, however, they are not a prerequisite for thinking, exploring options, and planning ahead. Some Sri Lankan students are following the lead of their peers in both Asian and Western countries, and are planning two or three years ahead.
These students are well prepared - they have explored careers, assessed their personal interests and abilities, researched future opportunities, prepared their financial budgets, and are aware of the main education destinations for today's student. In other words, they have planned ahead. Once these students receive their results they are ready to make informed decisions like most of you have not planned ahead then the US Education and Global Careers Seminar is for you. Even decisions on their future and take action.
To parents and students - congratulations if you are in this category! If, though, if you have planned ahead, the US Education and Global Careers Seminar can help validate your decisions and assist you in fine-tuning the final steps to a well-planned and successful future. The seminar is scheduled for Saturday, 24th September at Cinnamon Grand Hotel Colombo at 2.00 pm. For more information and a complete agenda just call Ehsan on 077 3063066. US Education and Global Careers Seminar is free of charge but bookings are essential.
