Why It Matters

Preparing Students for Tomorrow
Requires More Than Academics.

Academic excellence alone doesn't prepare students for what comes after graduation. Long-term success also requires hands-on exposure, informed guidance, and future-ready skills.

🎯

Limited Real-World Exposure

Students often choose careers, degrees, and universities before they've had meaningful opportunities to explore what those paths truly involve.

🤖

A Rapidly Changing World of Work

AI and emerging technologies are reshaping what careers look like — often faster than school curricula can keep up.

🧭

Decisions Have Never Been More Complex

Students must balance interests, career opportunities, costs, future demand, and long-term outcomes all at once.

🚀

Beyond Academic Excellence

Strong academics are a foundation — but students also need guidance and practical experience to transition beyond the classroom.

Common Questions

Answered Directly.

Do we have to commit to both Career Labs and Intent Sessions, or can we choose just one?

You can choose either program individually, or bundle both. Most institutions start with one program and expand once they've seen the fit.

Is this delivered on-campus or virtually?

Intent Sessions can be delivered in-person or virtually, depending on your institution's needs. Career Labs, given its hands-on, team-based format, generally works best in-person — we'll talk through what fits your setup on a Discovery Call.

Does this replace our existing school counselors?

No. GradIntent is built to complement your counseling team, not replace it. Counselors know your students best — what we add is the outside perspective and industry access your team often doesn't have the bandwidth to provide in-house. Intent Sessions bring that outside insight directly into the classroom, while Career Labs gives students a structured platform to explore careers hands-on and build a real profile over time — the kind of ongoing, experiential work few schools can run on their own. We work alongside your existing staff, not around them.

We don't have a counseling team. Can you help?

Yes. For schools without a dedicated counseling team, GradIntent can support your students directly, guiding subject choices, university planning, and profile building alongside our programs. We'll shape the right level of support for your school on a Discovery Call.

Who actually leads the sessions — is it the same person each time?

Every program is personally designed and delivered by Tabish Warsi, with additional student mentors supporting where needed. You're not getting a rotating, unfamiliar team — the same structure runs across every GradIntent program.

Can we start with a single session before committing to a full partnership?

Yes. Intent Sessions can be booked as a standalone workshop, a custom series, or the complete library — so you can test fit before scaling up.

How is pricing determined?

Pricing, format, and scope are shaped around your institution's specific needs and discussed directly on a Discovery Call — there's no fixed package price, because every institution's requirements are different.

How does Career Labs fit into our timetable?

Each session fits a regular 45 to 60 minute period. Schools can also run a stage across half-days, a dedicated day, or an after-school slot. We shape the schedule around yours on a Discovery Call.

What does our school receive at the end of a stage?

Per-student and per-cohort reports your counseling team can use directly, plus co-branded certificates and portfolio materials for every student.

How does Career Labs align with NEP 2020, for CBSE and ICSE schools?

NEP 2020 asks schools to build structured career guidance into the classroom from Grade 6 onward, delivered experientially and assessed holistically, well before students commit to a stream. Career Labs is built around exactly that: hands-on, on-site sessions that give students real exposure to career paths ahead of the Class 10/11 stream decision, with per-student reports and portfolios your counseling team can use directly.
