Guiding Parents for a Brighter Future: CareerLiy’s Career Awareness Sessions
At CareerLiy, we understand that career planning is not just about choosing a job — it’s about helping a child discover their true potential and aspirations.
Recognizing the critical role parents play in shaping their child's career journey, we proudly organize Career Awareness Sessions in schools aimed at empowering parents with the right knowledge, tools, and mindset to support their children from an early stage.
Why Early Career Planning Matters
Career decisions made during school years often set the direction for a student's entire future. Yet, many times, these decisions are made hurriedly, without proper understanding of the child’s strengths, interests, or the rapidly changing world of work.
Early career planning ensures that students are exposed to a wide range of opportunities and begin aligning their academic and personal growth in a meaningful way.
Our sessions help parents realize that career awareness is not just a conversation to have in Class 12 — it’s a journey that ideally begins much earlier, with careful observation, encouragement, and support.
What We Focus On During Parent Sessions
CareerLiy’s parent workshops are designed to create a friendly, informative, and interactive space where parents can engage with professional career counselors and education experts.
- Understanding the Child’s Interest:
A child's passion and natural curiosity are strong indicators of where they can excel. We help parents recognize how interests, even hobbies, can later develop into meaningful career paths. - Assessing Aptitude:
Aptitude — whether it’s in logic, language, creativity, leadership, or spatial skills — plays a big role in career success. We explain the importance of scientifically assessing a child's abilities rather than making assumptions based on grades alone. - Knowing the Child’s Personality:
Some careers demand analytical precision, while others thrive on creativity or people skills. We show parents how personality traits — introversion, extroversion, empathy, leadership — should guide career conversations. - Navigating New-Age Career Options:
From traditional careers like engineering, medicine, and law to emerging fields like data science, climate research, design thinking, digital marketing, and sports management — we introduce parents to the diverse world of career opportunities today. - Avoiding Common Mistakes:
Through real-life case studies, we discuss common errors parents make — such as imposing their own dreams, following societal pressure, or making choices based only on "safe" options — and how to avoid them. - Building a Career Roadmap:
Parents learn the basics of how a career plan should evolve — including exploration, skill-building, academic planning, internships, and flexibility to adapt over time.
Creating a Partnership Between Parents, Schools, and Career Experts
We believe that career building is a team effort. Our sessions help foster a collaborative mindset among parents, schools, and career advisors. By working together, we can ensure that children are not only prepared for academic excellence but also for long-term career satisfaction and success.
Parents leave our sessions better informed, less anxious, and more confident about guiding their children through career decisions in a supportive and non-pressurizing way.
Building Future-Ready Families
At CareerLiy, we see parents as career co-navigators rather than decision-makers.
Through our school-based sessions, we aim to create future-ready families — ones that value passion, planning, and purpose over outdated notions of success.
We invite all schools and parent communities to partner with us in this important mission of shaping a generation that not only chooses the right career but also loves what they do.
