Career Planning Again? Self-Discovery in Midlife with Annette Bosley-BoyceAccording to the U.S. Department of Labor, the average person will change careers 5-7 times during their lifetime. Some of these job transitions are unwanted (such as when a company decides to downsize), while others come from a change of heart (like when our career values shift or when we decide to pursue that dream job we’ve always wanted). No matter the reason, now is the time to focus on YOU! Join this free hour-long workshop, specifically designed for “midlifers,” to overcome any self-doubt and recognize that midlife is the perfect time to begin a new journey with wisdom and experience on our side! We will…
· Take quick assessments and/or personal inventory to review our career interests, values, and skills;
· Apply skills and transferable skills to various jobs or job families;
· Research careers (income, work environment, needed education/training);
· Learn about today’s fastest growing occupations (Bright Outlook);
· Compare company profiles and work conditions;
· Discuss next steps
