YOGYAKARTA - Like entering a new chapter in life, after graduating from high school one must plan what to do next. There are several ways that can be chosen for young people who have just graduated. It could be that you continue to study, go straight to the world of work, start opening a business, and others.

Not a few young people are still confused about determining the steps after graduating from high school. They do not have a planning so they feel swayed and do not have a destination. In fact, this plan must be drawn up long ago, even before graduating from school.

However, to determine the course of this career, it is also adjusted to the vision and mission conditions of each individual. Each option has a good goal as long as it is prepared optimally. So how to plan after graduating from high school so that it is not indecisive and productive?

After completing the high school level, usually each individual will separate or choose their own steps. There are various choices of career plans after graduation that can be taken by young people. Sometimes the existence of several career paths makes many people confused where to go?

Of course you don't want to hang around or don't have activities after graduating from high school. Therefore, it is better to plan the direction of the destination according to the ideals and needs of each individual. For those of you who sit at the final level of school, keep the tips on planning after graduating from high school below:

This study follow-up plan is suitable for those of you who want to add and deepen your knowledge. By continuing your education to a higher level, you have more scientific provisions and can achieve titles according to the selected field of study.

But to be able to go to college, you have to prepare a fairly large fee. That's why not everyone is lucky to be able to continue their education in college. Often young people from underprivileged or poor families cannot go to college because of lack of capital.

But for those of you from middle to lower class families, don't be discouraged. You can still enter college with a scholarship scheme. There are various scholarships provided by the government and the private sector to finance talented and outstanding children to continue their education.

The second path that can be taken after graduating from high school is to enter the world of work. This career choice is usually taken by students who graduated from Vocational High School (SMK). High school students are educated and formed to master certain skills.

Armed with teaching obtained during school and internship experience, vocational students are better prepared to work directly than high school graduates. Usually, the school also cooperates with companies to open opportunities for graduates to work immediately.

Maybe there are those who are not interested in studying and are reluctant to work with other people or within the company. If you are one of them, maybe opening an independent business can be a suitable choice after graduating from high school. You can try to become a young entrepreneur by selling certain products or services.

Some people are more interested in becoming entrepreneurs because of their flexible working hours and increasing profits. But behind that, to become an entrepreneur requires a mental resilience and business strategy. You must be observant in reading opportunities and thinking about techniques to attract consumers.

Another planning that can be your choice is to undergo a foreign language course. Usually foreign language courses are followed by people who want to work abroad. As workers from other countries, you are required to master the country's language or international language.

Many people are interested in working abroad after graduating from high school because of a large salary offer. The pay for working abroad is indeed bigger than the sellers received by workers in Indonesia. However, the amount of the salary also depends on where the country and its company come from.

Those are the planning tips after graduating from high school that students need to understand. Make career plans long before graduation so that you know the direction of steps and don't hesitate. Choose according to your dreams and needs because everyone has different conditions. Also read tips for choosing the right scholarship.
