Expectations for all appointments
Appointments and interactions with Career Counselors are intended for educational purposes only. To ensure that we are engaging in a safe, secure and respectful atmosphere with students, a counselor can end any counseling session at their professional discretion if a student is being disrespectful, inappropriate or does not have proper online etiquette for video, phone, in-person or chat sessions.
Scheduling a Counseling Appointment
Counseling appointments are scheduled in ConexEd. If you have a student account via Canvas, you can sign in by selecting the Canvas Icon or the Chaffey Login Portal. If you do not have an account, you can create a guest account by clicking on guest and creating an account.
When making an appointment be sure to select the correct meeting location desired. All in-person Career Center counseling appointments at the Rancho Campus will be available to students who are registered in at least one face-to-face or hybrid class. All online students should make online appointments.
