What if I am unable to find any career coaching availability on COOL?
If you’re unable to find any coaching appointments on COOL, this likely means that all upcoming appointments are booked. However, please do check regularly as new appointments are added to the schedule every 7-10 days.
How many appointments am I permitted to book?
To make sure everyone has a chance to meet with an advisor, we ask that you book no more than two appointments at a time. You may get all your questions answered in one session or leave with next steps before booking another.
