Career Choice Program: Facts
WHAT The Career Choice Program is a complete career design process for people who want to choose a new career direction that fits them perfectly. It is the only complete program we know of for people seeking the highest levels of personal satisfaction, meaning, success and full self-expression in their careers.

GOAL Rather than the usual "career exploration" that is the goal of most career counseling, clients use the Career Choice Program to go beyond exploration and design their future career. Most clients' goal is to decide exactly what they will do with their lives by the end of the program. The vast majority achieve this goal.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE? Many clients take two to three months to complete the program. Some go faster, some take longer. The length of the program is based on your individual situation and how quickly you are able to sort out some of the pieces of the puzzle. Some clients, with an urgent need to make decisions in a hurry, take as little as three weeks, but this is not common.

WHERE We have clients all over the globe. Most clients do the program in the privacy of their home. Sessions are conducted by telephone unless you live or travel to the Washington, D.C. area. Most Rockport clients live outside our local area. Although some people believe that in-person coaching is an absolutely essential ingredient, in fact what is most important is to engage in a process that will actually get you to your goal. There is no difference in the effectiveness of the program whether done from a distance or in-person.


TO REGISTER Because the Career Choice Program involves an ongoing coaching relationship leading to making important decisions about your future, it is important to make sure there is a good fit between the program and your goals and expectations. The best way to do that is to have a conference with us before you register. Please call or email the office to schedule a time when you have an hour free and then call us at the appointed time. During this conference, we will discuss your situation, what you want to achieve in the Career Choice Program, and answer your questions.

Please call us at 301-340-6600 or click here to EMAIL US to schedule a conference. There is no charge for this meeting. The whole point is for both you and us to take a look at whether or not the Career Choice Program would be the best way for you to move forward and make your important career decisions. And, if it is, to begin to work together.

PROGRAM FEE Career Choice Program fees are on a sliding scale to make participation possible for people who could not afford the full fee. The fee is based on household income and overall financial well-being. To determine your exact program fee, give us a call.
