Career Counseling

Each spring when students register for classes, information is provided about Bethany's site license to Bridges.com, an excellent site for exploring career possibilities that matches student interests and aptitudes with possible career choices, majors in college, and much more. See the guidance counselor for the login ID and password to gain access to this.

College

Over two dozen colleges visit our campus each year to recruit students and to provide information regarding their areas of specialty. We advertise and promote college fairs in our area including Goshen High School College Fair and the Christian College Fair sponsored by Bethel College.

Elkhart Career Center

Each spring we invite the Elkhart Area Career Center to our campus for a presentation to all sophomores about vocational occupations that includes an invitation to consider attending part-time for study in areas that Bethany does not offer. Typically Bethany has 4-8 students a year participating in that program.

Mentorship

Mentorship is a program designed for 2nd semester seniors to explore specific occupations by career shadowing in their field of interest. They can receive credit for this experience and has helped them learn about what the field of interest entails on a daily basis. Mentorship placements have included optometry, teaching assistant, dietetics, day care, photography for newspaper, and running a golf pro shop.
