Curriculum Overview

Curriculum Overview

This course is designed to help students develop the skills they need to continuously make effective life/work decisions throughout their lives. Students will be required to develop and maintain a comprehensive Personal Career Plan which will support students through their educational and life/work transitions. Creating, maintaining, reviewing, and sharing a coherent personal plan will help students to make thoughtful, informed, and appropriate decisions regarding their goals and their pathways through and beyond school. To receive credit for this course, students are also required to complete a minimum of 30 career education hours prior to graduation. These can include volunteerism, community service projects, mentorship, job shadowing, and other valuable forms of experiential learning. The course is organized into four units.

• Unit 1: Personal Management

• Unit 2: Financial Literacy

• Unit 3: Life/Work Exploration and Employability Skills

• Units 4: Preparing for Life/Work Transitions

All students are expected to successfully complete the course and thirty (30) hours of volunteer activity in order to meet the graduation requirements. In the event a student fails to achieve their hours, no mark should be submitted for the Career Development course until this requirement has been met. Provision should be made for completing the hours after the course year is over. If a student is unsuccessful in the course but completes the 30 hours of community contribution, the hours do not have to be redone if the course is repeated.
