Career Education

A career is not just a series of jobs.  The National Career Development Association in the USA define it, “a continuous process of lifelong learning, growth, and development.” As a career educator, I work on the premise that career development is the process of “managing learning, work, leisure and transitions to move toward a personally determined and evolving future.” I use a holistic approach with a biopsychological perspective and the principles of adult development and ageing – changes are continuous over the lifespan, and individuality matters. It also goes with Donald Super’s lifecycle and lifespan theory that shows how much time education and career occupy in our lives. Career planning has a 7-step process: Intake interview » Strong assessment » Theorizing the perspectives » Apply models » Create self-marketing tools » Upgrade skills » Execute the plan.

“Very rarely do we acknowledge the role of people who shape us and mold us and help us to find ourselves in that process. Today, as a Marketing Manager in a reputed Data Engineering company with two master's, I can not help but bow down to someone who has helped me not only to learn how to be a learned academic but also a good human being.”

“Of late, I got a lucrative offer from one of Bell Mobile’s competitors in BC, I immediately contacted him. He listened to me attentively, asked a couple of open-ended questions, and advised me accordingly. Based on his advice, I decided to stay with Bell, and it came out to be the best decision for my career progression. I am now an assistant manager of a corporate branch.”
