RESOURCES FOR STUDENTS

 

 

CLP's Career-Related Web Resources:

The FC Career Planning System is here!  It is the first of its kind to combine interest, skills, and work values assessments with occupational and educational information sources as well as a lifetime online career portfolio.  This FREE program for FC Students is an online comprehensive, research-based approach to career exploration, planning, and development.  For a PowerPoint presentation on this program, click onto Presentation.

The Career & Life Planning Process helps you understand all that goes into career development.  The Career & Life Planning Process assists you with identifying what you're good at; how your skills, values and interests translate into work; and where to find that work. 

Career Counseling is a very important part of the career development process.  From goal setting to decision making, our career counselors can provide you with consultation and support.

The CLP Center hosts Career Workshops on a regular basis designed for either the undecided or decided student usually for a duration of one hour.

The Career Center Assignment is a quick 20-minute assignment to help identify careers within you major.  Find out which colleges/universities offer degrees in your field of study leading to your career choice and learn about the employment outlook and necessary preparation for your career.

The CLP Center also has the California Career Information System Eureka which offers a comprehensive database for the career explorer, including personality and skills assessments.  You must follow the Instructions (pdf) before logging onto the site.

Find updated career and occupational information and selected articles in the Career Spotlight Newsletter published by the Career & Life Planning Center bi-annually.

The Vocational Biographies system is a comprehensive online career library offering "real-life" career stories and an endless stream of ideas for readers seeking career direction.  You must follow the Instructions (pdf) before logging onto the site.  It is also offered in print copies in the CLP Center.

Keeping labor market trends in mind as you consider your career development will give you perspective and help you make realistic decisions about your future. Click onto Labor Market Realities.

Chronicle Occupational Briefs are available in the CLP Center located on the desktops of the CLP Center's lab computers.  It contains comprehensive occupational descriptions of more than 2,200 careers.

BOOKS, BOOKS, and more BOOKS!  The Career and Life Planning Center offers an extensive Career Library with updated career books, journals, magazines, newspapers.  From Accounting to Zoology, you will find a book that is just for you!
