Produktbeschreibung

This timely book explores current trends and future possibilities for undergraduate career education, the nature of the changing workplace, and its impact on students in colleges and universities.

Built on decades of experience in career development and professional learning, the editors raise and investigate multiple critical issues facing career educators in higher education today: preparing students for the future of work; exploring the increasing centrality of experiential learning in career education; examining innovative paradigm shifts in career education; and developing strategies for equity-focused and inclusive programming for all students.

Reckoning with the effects of Covid-19 on the world of career development, this book draws on contributions from leading scholars, entrepreneurs, and practitioners from across the fields of education, business, STEM, and the humanities to offer an inclusive and innovation-focused approach to supporting scholars, practitioners, and students involved with career education, development, and counseling for a new generation - and a new world of work.

Rezensionen

"In today's higher education climate, it's no longer good enough for institutions to focus on learning solely for learning's sake. Students and their families expect more, and employers demand more. Having a strong career center is important, but institutions that don't want to be left behind need to make student career readiness a campus-wide priority. Readers of Mapping the Future of Undergraduate Career Education will find new strategies for placing a deliberate, impactful focus on ensuring that students can connect what they are learning in college to their first job and their long-term career."

-- Paul Timmins, Executive Director, University of Oregon Career Center, Former President, National Career Development Association, USA

"This text is timely and provocative: a much-needed resource for institutions that strive to be student ready and forward thinking in their approach to undergraduate career preparation."
