Abstract: Career plays a vital role in an individual’s life as it shapes professional growth, personal fulfillment, and overall well-being. Career path guidance may start as early as childhood which places direction on what academic program a child would be engaged with. Though some students entering undergraduate studies may still be in the process of choosing their career paths, the Adolescent Personality Questionnaire (APQ) serves as a tool for career guidance counselors to assess their students and provide professional interventions as they go through their undergraduate studies. In this study, an APQ program was integrated into a course taken by students at the early onset of their college years. The results of the APQ are very useful in developing programs that could aid and help students develop their character, improve their strengths, and deal with some weaknesses. Overall, integrating APQ sessions into academic programs would improve career awareness and understanding of the self.
