GUIDANCE COUNSELING DEPARTMENT PREPARES FOR CAREER WEEK 2023
Basseterre, St. Kitts, Friday November 03, 2023: The Guidance Counseling Department in the
Ministry of Education prepares for Career Week 2023. Career Week will be observed from
Monday, November 6, to Friday, November 10, 2023, under the theme “Navigating the Future:
Developing Careers Beyond Boundaries”.
Mrs. Sasha-Gay M c Dermott, Guidance Counselor Coordinator, gave insight into the expectations
for Career Week.
“As part of our week of activities, we decided to engage our stakeholders, who will be sharing
different perspectives that would be beneficial to our parents. The focus of these sessions is
parent-child conversation – helping your child to find their niche. We hope that the conversations
will be beneficial to not just parents, those prospective parents, and grandparents but also to our
students and our nation at large.”
She further extended best wishes for the upcoming week.
“We do wish everyone a wonderful career week as we seek to explore beyond the box and to
find the avenues that our children are interested in and to prepare them for the future world of
work.”
All public schools across St. Kitts will observe Career Week as they host several activities that
will allow students to get the opportunity to have an up-close look at the different career paths
that they may be interested in.
