What do Students Do in the Career Explorations Course?
In Career Exploration (CE099), students are not expected to make decisions about majors or career pathways, but instead they do participate in structured activities that guide them to learn about themselves and explore potential options.
Examples of these activities are:
- Students complete chapter readings in College & Career Success: Concise 9th Edition where they familiarize with course key terms and topics like interests, multiple intelligences, work values, work environment preferences, career projections/trends.
- Students complete two self-assessments on Interests and Work Environment Preferences. One assessment is from the job search resource, CareerOneStop, and the other is from the course textbook.
- Students learn how to conduct basic career research as they familiarize with several federal job search tools, including O*NET/My Next Move and the Occupational Outlook Handbook. Through their research, students choose three different occupations to explore, connect their learning from the self-assessments and readings, and develop research writing skills.
- The final unit of the course focuses on building job search skills as students explore the benefits of networking, develop a current resume, learn how to request letters of recommendation and references, and practice basic interviewing skills.
