The Growing Need for Career Counsellors in India

India is at a crossroads. We have the largest young population in the world—over 600 million people under the age of 25. Yet, a staggering number of them are confused, anxious, and directionless when it comes to their careers.

According to recent studies:

  • Over 90% of students are unaware of career options beyond the traditional streams.
  • Nearly 80% of graduates feel they chose the wrong career path.
  • Less than 10% of schools have access to qualified career counsellors.

The gap is enormous. The demand is urgent. And the opportunity has never been bigger.

MENTAKON has stepped in to bridge this gap with a revolutionary ecosystem designed to empower educators, psychology students, homemakers, and professionals to become certified career counsellors.

 

What Makes the MENTAKON Ecosystem a Game Changer?

MENTAKON is not just a training program. It is a complete, end-to-end ecosystem that supports you at every step of your counselling journey. Here is how:
