Career Exploration:

• You can visit our very own Career Center here on LACC’s campus. The Career Center provides students with individual and group counseling, vocational testing services, exploration of career options, and information on occupational fields and employment.
• The California Career Zone is a career exploration and planning system designed especially for students. Students can explore career options by taking self-assessments that can link up your interests to jobs and occupations. Students can also find out how much money they will need to pay for housing, transportation, bills, clothing, etc. and which occupations will pay for all their needs.
• The Career Cafe is a networking site that assists individuals with all the resources they need to get a job, such as: workshops, job search guides, resume guidebook and software, effective websites, and professional career facilitators.
