Candice, It is wise to encourage students - ALL students - to explore the job market before they begin their training. But remember that students don't have to be able to work in ALL settings in order to be able to work in SOME settings. For example, an individual might never be able to function as beat cop, but still be able to find a job as a security guard. We always have to be careful not to overgeneralize the need for qualifications. Dr. Jane Jarrow
