This webinar will be an introduction to myfuture.

Cathy Danaher will demonstrate how the platform can be a useful tool in career and transition planning and will highlight resources that are most relevant to you and your students or clients.

This will include a reference to myfuture’s psychometric career interest test (My career profile), the occupation and course information, videos, case studies, and resources mapped to the Australian Curriculum Work Studies sub-strands.

Cathy will also show you what’s new, what’s changed, and where you can find the existing content that you know and value.

What difference do career services professionals make in clients’ lives? How do we contribute to the mission of the institutions and organizations we serve? How do we know? Advocating for and continuously improving the work that we do as career professionals begins with compelling responses to questions like these. But, who has time to answer them well?

This webinar frames assessment as a powerful tool to help career professionals “tell the story” of the impact of their programs, services, and resources in clients’ lives. We explore different types of assessment strategies (e.g., needs, participation, satisfaction, outcomes) that can inform the development and enhancement of career development programs.

We then discuss ways to make assessment activities both meaningful and manageable, as we connect them to day-to-day activities of our offices. Examples of completed assessment projects – shared from design, to findings, to use of results – provide illustrations and resources that can be translated into your own work settings.

Presenter – Julia Panke Makela,  Associate Director for Assessment and Research @The Career Center at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Uncertainties in the workplace are ever-present.

We saw shared, global experiences of this with the uncertainties surrounding work during the COVID-19 pandemic. ‘Uncertainty tolerance’ (UT), or how we process and respond to unknown or complex situations, is increasingly recognised as an essential workplace skill.

In this Insights webinar, Monash University Associate Professor Michelle Lazarus will discuss the impacts of uncertainty tolerance on students and outline some teaching practices to help students improve their UT to prepare them for their futures in further education and work.

As part of National Careers Week, the National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education (NCSEHE) will host a virtual event on Friday 21 May, showcasing NCSEHE-commissioned research on key influencers and careers advice for equity students.

Overview

In 2019, the NCSEHE commissioned four large-scale projects to improve access to information about higher education study options, pathways, and careers for disadvantaged students and those who influence them.

With a particular focus on low socioeconomic status, regional and remote, and Indigenous students, the year-long research projects were conducted under the Australian Government Department of Education, Skills and Employment National Priorities Pool (NPP) program.

In this Careers Week event, the research teams will present key findings, outcomes and recommendations from the year-long projects, followed by audience Q and A.
