Careers Education: Evolving, Adapting and Building Resilience through Chaos
Loader, Trent
Australian Journal of Career Development, v20 n1 p46-49 Aut 2011
Career educators' ultimate goal, given the new career management paradigm, should be to ensure that students are career resilient when they leave their studies (from whatever year level). This article outlines the chaos theory of careers and resilience. It then goes on to describe a four-lesson unit of careers education work that attempts to incorporate both the chaos theory of careers and resilience into a usable careers education unit that can be delivered on its own or with an existing program. The unit's aim is to highlight the role that chance events play in career development and to prepare students to ride and embrace the wave of constant change.
