Developmental Considerations for
High School Students
• As students transition from middle school to high
school, they focus more directly on the task of
identifying occupational preferences and clarifying
career/lifestyle choices.
• According to Super (1957), the essential tasks are
crystallizing, specifying educational preferences,
and implementing tentative career choices.
Trang 3Preparation for Career Transition:
After High School
• Over 70% of high school seniors expect to hold
professional jobs- “the silent dream”
• This trend toward “college for all” aspirations
emerged from a labor market that needed increased skills, more accessible enrollment to college, and
community colleges instituted an open admissions policy
• Important to teach students about a variety of
rewarding careers that exist in a variety of fields
including those occupations that do not require a
college degree

Coping with Transition
• Adolescents must acquire workforce readiness to cope successfully with their school-to-work
transition.
• Important to provide “transition enhancement” assistance to secondary school students as they progress toward further education, training, or employment.
Trang 5Coping with Transition
(Continued)
• Secondary school students need emotional
support to lessen the anticipatory anxiety they may experience as they consider the transitions they will encounter.
• Transition skills build upon the self-awareness, occupational awareness, and decision-making skills students have developed throughout their educational experience

Helping Students Prepare for
Workforce Readiness
All students can attend college, but low-achieving students should be cautioned about the need to take remedial courses once they enter college
Even if high school students have college plans, they must prepare for work
College plans require substantial efforts and good academic planning in high school
Trang 7Helping Students Prepare for
Many good jobs do not require a college degree
High school students improve their chances for
obtaining good jobs by:
• having better academic achievement,
• taking vocational courses,
• getting job-placement assistance from teachers and
• developing “soft skills” such as interpersonal
competence and good work habits
