Celebrate National Career Development Month

November is National Career Development month and a wonderful time to celebrate our work as career advisors. Each November, I take the opportunity to schedule a few lunch meetings with some of my most respected peers and organize best practice sharing days within some of my professional affiliations. What will you do this month to celebrate?

Job Action Day, celebrated November 7th this year, is all about empowering job-seekers to attain the skills employers seek, taking charge of directing their career, and being vocal and demanding action on job creation -- helping your clients move their career and/or job-search forward. Check out this site for some ideas to incorporate in your tool kit. Especially note the blogs listed at the bottom of the link. What great resources for us a career practitioners.
