Career planning involves 'the search for' a direction that leads to education and basic experience in pursuing a particular type of career or job. Career planning usually occurs during high school, as early as 10th grade but usually by 12th grade. In these two years, HS students may explore career options, engage in career counseling and testing, and gain basic experiences through part time work or summer internships. But career planning continues through the early 20s, especially if the person attends college. It is common to 'try on' several ideas of a certain career, but discard these ideas as more information is known.

Additionally, in today's economic conditions, adults may need to re-visit career planning if they lose their jobs. The same process occurs as when the person is in HS: considering talents, skills, interests, educational requirements, and time issues. The act of going to or returning to college is part of career planning.

Career development is the process of managing life, learning and work. Career development is a term used to describe the management of work-related activity throughout your life. At best, career development s includes a written or thought-out plan that sets small goals for the next 1 to 5 years to help you achieve your goals for the chosen career. Career development can include obtaining a higher degree, taking single classes or seminars, obtaining additional training, and consciously taking on additional work. Many professions require ongoing learning as a Continuing Education Unit (CEU) requirement for renewing a license, such as physicians, nurses, and other medical staff.

People tend to lose sight of their career path as the years go by. And many never had that career plan to begin with.
