Who the app serves
Trey Visay is a mobile e-counseling tool created for Cambodian secondary students (grades 9–12). Its goal is to help young people plan their next steps in education and work by giving clear, accessible guidance tailored to Cambodia.
Main functions
- A guided self-evaluation feature that helps learners identify their interests, strengths, and aptitudes to narrow down suitable career pathways.
- Video explainers and written profiles that describe specific careers available within Cambodia, giving real-world context.
- A searchable directory of higher-education institutions and vocational training providers, with practical details to support application choices.
- Offline access so students can consult resources even when internet connections are unreliable.
Benefits for students
Trey Visay equips users with tools to make purposeful decisions:
- Helps match personal skills and preferences to realistic career options.
- Presents local education and training choices in one place, reducing confusion.
- Uses multimedia (text and video) to make career information easier to understand.
- Is free to use, removing cost as a barrier to access.
Partners and initial support
The app was developed through a collaboration between multiple organizations:
- InSTEDD iLab Southeast Asia contributed technical support and development expertise.
- Kampuchean Action for Primary Education (KAPE) provided on-the-ground education input and outreach.
- The Cambodian Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport led the initiative and ensured alignment with national priorities.
- Initial funding came from the Swedish Program for ICT in Developing Regions (SPIDER).
How to get it
Trey Visay is distributed as a mobile application and works both online and offline. It’s available at no charge so students across different regions can access career guidance without fees.
Other options to consider
If you’re also looking for alternative apps for exploration or storytelling, try apps such as Toca Life World — a creative, free app focused on building and exploring imaginative scenarios rather than formal career counseling.
