The Career Planning and Counseling Center provides services
to help students decide on a college major at Chattanooga State. The Center also assists people in the community
who are changing careers, retraining, or are making the decision to come to college for
the first time.
Career counseling is a free service offered to Chattanooga
State students and to members of the community. The
process begins with a career information session. These
sessions are offered four times a week throughout the year.
These small group sessions provide a great starting point in exploring your career
options. Find out about services available
