Frequently Asked Questions
What is the typical career counselor to student ratio?
National averages show ratios of 1 career counselor per 1,500-2,500 students, meaning most students never receive individual attention. Prentus effectively provides every student with a personal AI career coach, regardless of staffing levels.
How can AI coaching serve students who never visit the career center?
Over 70% of students never visit the career center. Prentus AI Career Advisor is available 24/7 on any device, reaching students who prefer digital interaction, have schedule conflicts, or simply do not know what questions to ask.
Does AI coaching replace career counselors?
