PathFinder - The Online Career Planner

Research has shown that 80% of students are confused when choosing their career. Educational preferences and decisions are dictated by peer or parental pressure. Students opt for careers and educational programs based on what they think they should do rather than what they are best suited to do. This has led to academic failures, lowered self-esteem and lack of confidence in one’s abilities, inability to cope and even suicidal risks.

Both Cognitive and Non-Cognitive skills are important to choose a right career path. Knowing precisely what one interests are, what one’s abilities are and what traits define one’s personality, are the 3 key aspects that define a wise career decision. Unfortunately, most students are unaware of their strengths.

At Educafé we guide the student to understand his/her Interests, Abilities and Personality traits - the 3 key aspects to any career decision. All this is done through the Pathfinder, Educafé’s proprietary, online, psychometrically reliable and valid career assessment tool.
