Supporting Your Children’s Education and Career (ECG) Journey
Hand in Hand Journeying Together
Do you know…
• Your children’s dreams and aspirations?
• Your children’s interests, strengths and what he or she is passionate about?
• What your children want to be when they grow up?
Everyone has a set of unique attributes, but some of our children may not have discovered theirs. As parents, we can help them make informed choices in their ECG explorations.
• Get your children to reflect on these 3 ECG questions and discuss these important considerations with them to make informed decisions for their ECG pathways, and own them.
• What are my interests, abilities and passion?
• What industries and occupations would I like to explore?
• What are my education and career choices?
• What are the types of education opportunities available?
• Are the learning programmes offered by the institutions able to nurture my interests, abilities and passion?
• How can I utilize available resources to bring myself closer to my academic and career goals?
• How can I find out more about the education and career options I have in mind?
• Are there open houses, education fairs I can attend?
• Are there research I can do online to have a better understanding of the career development opportunities offered?
It is important for your children to know much you care about them and how willing you are to support them. Your child will have more confidence in making informed education and career decisions that match their interests, abilities and passion.
