| Plotting Successful Student Career Paths |
|
The path to a successful career often starts with college. Yet for many college graduates, it will not be a straight route. The need for constant transformation of skills will lead many workers to branch off onto alternative tracks; some will detour to employment destinations they never could have imagined on graduation day.
Colleges can be the mapmakers that help students plot successful career paths. This is not simply the work of guiding students to a career but of encouraging them to discover their passions — of helping them chart a path that will lead not just to a job, but to job satisfaction.
New Pathways From College to Career will examine how the revolution in work has created new demands on colleges, affecting what they teach and the ways in which they help prepare students for the job market. And it will highlight some of the exciting innovations in career education and development that can help colleges more sure-footedly guide students along the path from study to work. |
