Free webinar on Hope-Centred Career Development
CERIC is pleased to present a free webinar on Hope-Centred Career Development with Dr Norman Amundson of the University of British Columbia and Dr Spencer Niles from Pennsylvania State University.
FREE Webinar: Hope-Centred Career Development
Date/Time: Thursday, June 13, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm ET
Presenters: Dr Norman Amundson, Dr Spencer Niles, Barbara Smith & Hyoyeon In
This webinar will present a Career Development model (Self Reflection, Self Clarity, Visioning, Goal Setting & Planning, Implementing & Adapting) where hope is the centre point for all facets of the career development process. The presenters will share some quantitative and qualitative CERIC-funded research that they recently completed with university and college students in Canada and the US. In assessing levels of hope, the research used the Hope-Centred Career Inventory (HCCI) as one of the measures and assessed participants’ level of hopefulness related to student engagement, academic performance and vocational identity. The webinar will also discuss the research findings related to the experiences of students who scored high on hope, but were also facing major challenges in their lives.
