A quasi-experiment was conducted in four major secondary schools in southwestern Uganda among students receiving advanced level education. A total of 89 students were enrolled into treatment group, and 72 in control group that were randomly selected. Treatment group received career guidance and counselling sensitisation based occupational in formation contained in National Occupational Information Coordinating Com mittee (NOICC) competencies and indicators (1976). A checklist was mod ified from NOICC competencies and indicators and used to assess students’ occupational information knowledge. Results revealed no significant occupa tional information knowledge difference between treatment and control groups. However, occupational information knowledge gaps were detected in compe tencies for understanding the impact of growth and development, need for positive attitudes toward work and learning, and understanding how societal needs and functions influence the nature and structure of work; and under standing the interrelationship of life roles on career life decisions. Therefore, increasing occupational information sensitisation for students in schools fo cusing on current changing work demands and technology may improve ca reer transition among students and reduce youth unemployment challenge being experienced globallyen-USStudentsSecondary SchoolsOccupational InformationCareer Life TransitionUgandaOccupational Information Knowledge Levels among Secondary School Students in UgandaArticle
