High School
Where am I going?
Are you struggling with decisions about life after high school? Do you ever feel pressured to pursue something that doesn't seem right for you? Are you concerned about the cost of a college education? Have your friends or parents told you what's best for you, but you have a feeling they could be wrong?
You're not alone. Four out of 5 working adults wish they had chosen differently when it comes to their education and career choices. Many highly educated people - doctors, lawyers, business people, accountants and professionals - often feel burned out. In many cases, that's because they lacked wise counsel as they considered those choices.
Are you confused about what you want to do with your life, your education and your career? Consider these facts:
According to Princeton Review, 56% of parents estimate their child's college degree to cost more than $100,000 (tuition, room, board,fees/other personal costs). In the 2007–08 academic year, annual prices were estimated to be $11,578 at public institutions and $29,915 at private institutions (U.S. Dept. of Education). Visitations average out to be about 1,000 per visit. Average cost of 3 changes w/ 2 course corrections is $1,800 minimum. Most college students will change their major more than once and take an extra 1.5 years to graduate. More than 60% of college graduates regret their choice of college major and find employment in a totally different field. Many college students would be better off skipping college altogether and pursuing technical or vocational career training instead. There are over 5,000 colleges and over 400 college majors to choose from. Youth are not aware how to bring faith into their life decision-making processes and align choices with life purpose.
If you're a high school freshman, sophomore, junior or senior who's looking for some specific insights and guidance to help you make wise choices about your education, career, and future (so you can SAVE ON THE FRONT END and NOT PAY LATER) - get a jump on the future with The CALL Vocational & Life Purpose Guide.

COLLEGE
What's my major?
“Research studies show that more students leave college because of disillusionment, discouragement, or reduced motivation than because of lack of ability or dismissal by school administration.”
~ Edward Anderson, Ph.D. -
The Gallup Organization
Kind of disturbing, isn't it? Consider these facts:
More than 60% of college graduates regret their choice of college major and find employment in a totally different field. Most college students will change their major more than once and take an extra 1.5 years to graduate.

Next to investing in a home, your college education may be one of the largest investments you'll ever make. Many college graduates will work several years to pay off educational debts, and some will never achieve financial freedom due to poor career choices. Many college students would be better off skipping college altogether and pursuing technical or vocational career training. Corporate loyalty is a thing of the past. College graduates now change jobs and careers with increased frequency. Knowing your gifts, interests, skills, and abilities will help in wise decision-making when changing vocations and careers.

CONTINUING EDUCATION
Continuing Education/Grad Studies
Ever feel as though everyone you know wishes he worked somewhere else? Well, it turns out, the majority of us really do. Many people are in a "career rut." In a job (or considering a job) that's less than exciting, where they feel bored, under-challenged or under-appreciated or where their opportunities for advancement and increased compensation are limited. Perhaps that's one of the reasons you're pursuing an advanced degree or continuing education. In this unpredictable job market and unstable world, investing in your own knowledge and education is one of the smartest moves you can make.

The CALL Vocational & Life Purpose Guide is the first and only tool of its kind. We've done years of research, studying a wide variety of career tools and how those assessments actually predict job success. As a result, we've designed The CALL using the best research, science, and technology -- with a Biblical worldview. How is The CALL different from other tests or assessments you may have used? Many assessments look to one's past, rather than determining what God has created you to do in the future. And, unlike most career assessments, The CALL measures cognitive abilities (practical mental capabilities) - the single most reliable predictor of success and satisfaction in your career and educational choices.

Wouldn't it be great to wake up in the morning and be excited about your career and your future? To know that you’re doing what God "wired" you to do? To use your talents, gifts, interests, strengths and abilities to do something that's significant and not just a way to earn a paycheck?
