Course Description & Learning Outcomes

This course is designed to teach participants the principles and practice of Life Designing & Career Construction Theory (CCT). CCT is a post-modern theory of career choice and development designed to help workers navigate career transitions by preparing them for a lifetime of change as they adjust and adapt to a dynamic and complex world of work.
