E-learning has been for more than around for ten years. It is probably the learning object that is assumed to be the learning content today. Commencing from computer-based delivery systems world, learning objects were idolized as Lego blocks or atoms. E-learning can be assumed as a part of lecture room or not that totally depends upon its implementation. It can be designated to as self-paced, non-synchronous training or can be drove by an instructor or can be renamed as concurrent learning. Distance learning is best matched to E-learning and also adjustable training, but can also be utilized with confronting teaching, where the terminology commonly used is blended learning. This type of blended learning in today's world is kind of static learning where the student are presented with static content irrespective of their capability to grasp the knowledge they are being provided. Therefore, there is need for a type of system that can adapt to the student's capability and would then provide knowledge by adapting to student's pace. To realize this sort of system, we would be building a system of career counseling system wherein the student would be presented a set of questions that would be based on their previous answers thus adapting to the student capability. Our system would take into consideration various factors before presenting questions to the candidate. Also, keeping in track the students previous history which also is of utmost importance, the final result that would be displayed to the student would take into consideration the historical factors of the students as well.
