Every person must face the practical realities of life: its opportunities, its responsibilities, its defeats and its successes. How he is to meet these experiences, whether he is to become a master or a victim of circumstances will largely depend upon his preparation to cope with them -his education. Choosing a career path can be a confusing and daunting experience for school leavers.

There is the exposure to new experiences, thoughts, knowledge, and technologies.
