    specialties’ studying at Lithuanian Maritime Academy. It is clearly proved
    statistically that one reason that student chooses profession is to follow their dreams
    to become a captain or chief mechanic and etc.) factors. Leech (2007).

    people and the information they receive within their environment. There are several
    factors that may affect the decision of students and parents, where it can be a good
    source of insight for private higher education institutions to offer quality services

    related to other people. In an academic environment, research shows that students
    who feel they 'belong' have a higher degree of intrinsic motivation and academic
    confidence, their sense of belonging is fostered by an instructor that demonstrates
    warmth and openness, encourages student participation, is enthusiastic, friendly and

    Career choice is an important and often a difficult issue for adolescents.


    Several recent studies unfold adolescents’ self-doubt, anxiety and uncertainty in
    career decision-making process (Negru-Subtirica, Pop, & Crocetti, 2015; Vignoli,
    2015). The perception of negative aspects of the profession (barriers) has an
    influence in career choice (Albeit & Luzzo, 1999). High-school students have been
    found to perceive very soon barriers to their future college attendance and work lives
    (McWhirter, 1997; McWhirter, Hackett & Bandalos, 1998). In Latvia there are many
    students in grade 11 and 12 who have not yet even begun to explore career
    possibilities seriously (Lubneko & Sebre, 2007). A recent study states that among
    Latvian students finishing secondary school, there are quite a lot of respondents
    whose career choice is rather unclear” (Jurgena, Gedrovics & Cedere, 2014, p.527).
    This delay in career decision may be an obstacle for future career development ,
    especially in maritime field, which requires a strong personal and academic
    involvement from the very first study year.
