Career Planning Question Do you think career planning is only for those who are college bound or getting started in the job market?

Career Planning Explanation If you said no, you’re right. The Career planning process helps students, career changers and job seekers learn more about their career choices or match their attributes up with a job that is a better fit. Career planning takes more time, but renders better job prospects verses basic job searching, which produces limited job opportunities.

Staff Assists Customer “Hello, Michael, How can I help you today?” “Well, I’m looking for a job, but I don’t know what I want to do, who will hire me or where to look for work.”

Introduction to Career Planning “Career planning? I thought that was for people going to college or someone starting out. I just want to look for a job” “To give you some direction, let’s start with career planning.”

Explanation of Career Planning “Questions you have can be answered through the career planning process. For example, you can explore careers based on your interests, values and skills. Then you can determine if you need to gain or expand your skills as well as learn about wage information before you start your job search. You also use elements of career planning to look for a job, increase your job opportunities, and find a job that is a better fit.”

Your Career Planning Guide Elements The Your Career Planning Guide illustrates the career planning process. Let’s take a look at each element: Assess Yourself Explore Careers Create A Plan and Set Goals Expand Skills Find A Job Manage Your Career

Your Career Planning Guide The guide can help customers at any stage in the career planning or job searching process. Customers get to know themselves better, learn about careers and the job market, create a plan and leverage that information to obtain a job and manage their careers.

Assess Yourself Element Knowing personal attributes such as interests, abilities, level of competencies, transferable skills, and strengths and weaknesses is a start to exploring careers that are a better fit. Assess Yourself I’m knowledgeable in basic residential building and state codes. I like to work in a team setting. I have great listening and analytical skills, but I’m not good at writing. I really like physical labor and using my hands. I have average math and computer skills I’m skilled at using a tape measure, carpenter tools and framing a house.

Explore Careers Taking time to research careers is the groundwork to finding a career or a job that is a better fit. Jobs of interest Jobs in-demand Green jobs Job growth projections Wage information Job qualifications Self-assessment tools Educational and training opportunities Explore Career Element

Labor Market Information The Your Career Planning Guide is a helpful tool for job seekers who don’t know where to get started, but there is another important factor to consider: labor market information (LMI). LMI helps the job seeker make informed decisions in career planning and job searching processes. Let’s take a look at three important LMI elements and the Job Skills Transfer Tool (JobStat) located on DEED’s Website. “Wage information is one piece of a greater strategy.” ~Kyle Uphoff, DEED Regional Analysis and Outreach Manager

Financial Aid Introduction One last thing, customers who inquire about education or training may need some information on financial aid. So lets see what’s available.

Financial Aid There are several funding sources available for training and educational programs. Depending on the program requirements, some WFC programs provide funding for short-term training, such as the Dislocated Workers Program and the Workforce Investment Act. Free training may be available for short-term training at local non- profit agencies, such as Goodwill Easter and American OIC. Government and private student loans are available for college programs or certificates. Government Grants Based on need and eligibility Do not need to be repaid Scholarship Rewards Based on criteria such as academic performance, ethnicity, athletics ability or recruitment for specific areas of study Some training institutions provide scholarships based on hardship and situation Do not need to be repaid Loans Issued by government and private banks Based on income, tuition and living expenses Repayment is required Links to financial aid information Free Application For Student Aid (FAFSA): Fafsa.gov Studentaid.ed.gov Scholarships.com Financial Aid

Recap The Career planning process helps students, career changers and job seekers learn more about their career choices or match their attributes with a job that is a better fit. Career planning activities include planning, self- assessments, research, expanding skills and managing a career. Individuals who skip this process may find themselves unsatisfied with their career choice or with limited job opportunities.
