Complete Chapter 28 – Exercise: Your Career Development Plan. APA format.
Exercise: Your Career Development Plan This is an especially personal exercise in that it asks you to plot out a likely career path for the remainder of your working years, subject to the following guidelines: Begin with your present working (or student) status, briefly described, stating why you are where you are. State where you intend to go next, and where after that, and after that, etc., as necessary. For each move you propose to make, indicate what you need to do to make that move (for Reference 1. Bartsch M. Go beyond surveys to assess needs. Training. 1996;33(5):15. . example, how much education of what kind, experience of what kind). Provide estimates of how much time each step may require (something of a variation on “where would you like to be in 5 years? 10 years?”). Finally, for each major milestone in your career plan, indicate what you would plan on doing-that is, how your overall plan might change-should any of your critical career milestones prove impossible to attain.
