Short Explanation
Informed choice is the client in the driver's seat with a readable map — options, tradeoffs, and limits — not VR handing over a preassigned job like a lottery ticket.

Informed choice is a foundational rehabilitation counseling concept emphasizing consumer involvement in selecting employment goals and services. Counselors provide understandable information about options, likely benefits, and limitations so clients can decide—not merely ratify counselor-assigned jobs. Treating informed choice as counselor unilateral selection contradicts rehab philosophy.
