| Summary: | The choice of a career is an important decision that a person has to make in his
life. The purpose of this study was to identify factors at play at the time that
learners' have to commit themselves to chosen career paths.
From the literature it became,evident that there exists an interplay between
personal and situational factors. This interplay results in the formation of a
certain identity which is later actualised in a chosen career.
The empirical study revealed that factors like the type of school attended, the
school curriculum the socio-economic location of the school and the availability
of guidance services played an important role in the choice of a career. Family
factors and other factors such as prestige and remuneration were also
influential. It appeared however that the level of a learner's career maturity
would be a major factor influencing career identity formation, choice and
subsequent satisfaction. === Summaries in English and Afrikaans === Een van die belangrike besluite wat In mens moet maak in sy lewe is die van In
