Working together for greater impact
Real stories.
Real impact.
The Career Guidance and Counselling training has given me a wider and clearer view of career pathways. The training was both inspiring and satisfying, and I look forward to putting it into practice to uplift myself and others.
WesleyCareer Guidance & Counselling TrainingThe knowledge came to me at the time I needed it. As a teacher and counselling psychologist, many issues I meet with parents and learners are now answered by psychometric assessment. CCA, you are God sent.
RuthCertified Career Counsellor ProgrammeI have been a teacher for over 15 years, and I wish I had met this group at the beginning of my career. The career guidance facilitators at CCA are the best.
The assessment report is quite accurate, a true reflection of who I am. Very informative on the adjustments to make to shape my future aspirations.
