CAREER DISCOVERY

WHAT’S COVERED

These workshops run for 2 hours in the evening on a weekly basis for six sessions and cover all the pieces of the Jigsaw Career Discovery Model and encourage REFLECTION, EVALUATION and ACTION

The initial aim is to increase your self awareness of;

  • Your unique talents and abilities
  • Your personality traits
  • Your motivations, interests and passions

  • Your key successes to date

Reflecting on these will lead you to determine;

  • A life purpose statement which can be used as a guiding principle
  • Your ideal working environment
  • Career ideas and themes

EVALUATION

You will then evaluate your career options and decide on the direction you wish to pursue in terms of your career.

ACTION

At this stage you create goals and an action plan to enable you to move towards your ideal job/career.

BENEFITS

  • have greater self-confidence due to a better understanding of your unique talents and abilities
