Description: The present study addresses the problems experienced by South African youth in making effective, informed career decisions. The goal of this study was to determine the effect of a career intervention programme on the career maturity and academic motivation of Grade 11 learners at Alphendale High School. Furthermore, the relationship between career maturity and academic motivation was explored. Using a pre-post test quasi-xperimental design it could be demonstrated that different dimensions of the learners’ career maturity and their academic motivation improved subsequent to the career intervention programme and therefore underscored the value of a career intervention programme.
