TESTIMONIALS

The Ultimate Career Guide is an established and authoritative publication in the career guidance field and supports our aim to provide better information to young people on how to approach their dream of improving their lives and those of their future families. To all our staff and learners attached to the different levels of education institutions in our country, I recommend this guide. Use it to map a journey from school to a rewarding career. Ms Naledi Pandor, former Minister of Education.

The Ultimate Career Guide is a comprehensive manual filled with important information that is presented colorful and user-friendly. It is also a great way of boosting our learners' interests in the careers which they might pursue. I believe that career guidance is essential in motivating learners to better their grades and achieve more in life. The Ultimate Career Guide comes highly recommended. Mr MC Mokitlane, former MEC - Department of Education (Free State).

"The role of this book is vital to the ultimate success of all our young people." Mr GA Lucas, MEC - Department of Education (Northern Cape).

I am a forensic Industrial & Organisational Psychologist whose field of expertise is loss of earnings in individuals who have suffered personal injury of some kind, whether this is as the result of a road accident, medical negligence or public liability. The comprehensive descriptions of the careers in the Guide, including physical, academic and personality requirements, has come in very useful in matters where I have been giving evidence in Court and where I have needed to demonstrate why a person with particular injuries can no longer do the job he or she was doing, prior to being injured. Barbara A. Donaldson Industrial & Counselling Psychologist.

The Ultimate Career Guide is the best career book that is currently available and I use it extensively in my career counseling. The University of Pretoria has a clinic in which approximately thirty MEd students in educational psychology do their practical work. I know that in my group, the final year students, your book is the most popular. Congratulations on an outstanding product! Antoinette Cook, Educational Psychologist.

The Ultimate Career Guide is an established, unequalled publication with its 8th Edition soon to be released in hard copy. Its electronic format (e-book), has excellent search facilities. Since its inception, the book has been privileged to have the support and recommendations of all 9 provincial MEC's, including the Ministers of the Departments of Education & Health.
