Work-related needs and preferences evolve and change continuously throughout life. At the same time, the world of work is continuously evolving and adapting to economic, political and social changes.
Career development focuses on enabling people to understand and develop their skills and preferences to manage these challenges, make good decisions about their working lives, and maximise their contribution to the communities in which they live and work.
Career Development is a specific discipline underpinned by accredited qualifications, proven theory and recognised practice. Engaging a career development professional to assist your career journey is like seeking advice from a medical professional for a condition, compared to consulting "Dr Google". Or, engaging a qualified tradesperson to undertake certain repairs, compared to DIY.
