As Canada Career Month unfolds, I have loved every opportunity so far to share my expertise at conferences, offering insights and resources that underscore the value of #careerdevelopment and #advocacy in shaping the #futureofwork. I sit with so much #gratitude that I get to do this for a living. 🌟 At the CES Career Education Society Conference in Vancouver, I delivered a keynote titled “Crafting the Future: Empowering the Next Generation for Career Success in 2040.” Drawing from CERIC’s "Career Development in 2040" report, I discussed the megatrends shaping our field, from #AI & #automation and work-anywhere cultures to the effects of #climatechange and #generationalshifts. These trends challenge us to reimagine career possibilities and the skills needed for a #resilientworkforce. 🌟 At the ASPECT BC - Association of Service Providers for Employability and Career Training Conference, the wonderful Kay Castelle and I co-presented “Career Advocacy in Action: Tools and Resources”. Together, we explored actionable strategies to advance advocacy in career development, providing tools and resources to help professionals champion the future of career development across Canada. Career development isn’t just about employment; it’s about equipping individuals and communities to thrive in a rapidly changing world. As we continue these important conversations, here are some amazing resources to support ongoing advocacy in our sector. They help us help those we serve: 📘 Advocacy Toolkit: https://lnkd.in/gujGnfsH 📘 Beyond Decent Work Playbook: https://lnkd.in/gKA7yzsN 📘 National Advocacy Campaign: https://lnkd.in/gM8szCpg As we navigate these complex times, it’s essential to amplify the importance of career development, preparing individuals to meet the challenges—and opportunities—of the future. I’m always excited to connect with professionals, organizations, and institutions interested in advancing career advocacy and creating sustainable pathways to success. Next stop, Alberta - to "build a new era in career development practice" with the amazing Ilana Zinyk! Also looking forward to sharing the virtual stage with Shelby McIntyre, Katherine Jennick RCDP, Bella Doswell CCDP, RCDP, Keka DasGupta, Sareena Hopkins, and Marty Apodaca, LPCC, CCC, NCC as we celebrate #NorthAmericaCareerWeek and discuss career development advocacy efforts in our respective countries. ✅ Celebrate North America Career Week with us on Nov 13 (it's free!): https://lnkd.in/gAh78Fim (National Career Development Association, CCDF-FCDC, CERIC) #CanadaCareerMonth #CareerDevelopment #WillTravelforCareerWork #FutureOfWork #CareerAdvocacy #CES2024 #ASPECTBC #BeyondDecentWork #SoMuchMoreThanTalkingAboutJobs #HumansofEmployment
