Riassunto

For Career Planning, Career Development, and Career Decision Making courses/workshops.

 

This revision retains and updates its’ best-selling attributes(now including online course managment) which are designed to help students choose, change, or confirm career choices, this best-selling text/workbook is firmly focused on today's career realities and economy–with sufficient breadth to encourage change and growth for students of all ages, backgrounds, and circumstances.  It is user-friendly, easy to read, and is suitable for both 2-year and 4-year college students.  CFP goes beyond facts and figures by offering critical questions that help students focus on “What’s in it for me?”  The organization of the book follows the standard sequence of career search and decision-making issues–Personal Assessment, The World of Work, and The Job Search.  This enables the text to be used in short term courses or workshops while still giving students a comprehensive text for reference.
