 * Purpose of Career and Work Experience ** -


 * Self Awareness - What can we learn about ourselves that will help us in the workplace? **


 * Vision Board ** - What is it that you want to accomplish in your lifetime? That is a pretty HUGE question. It is your turn now to think out of the box. As yourself, what is it that I really want out of life? Your job will be to complete your own Vision Board.

 * Next job on our journey is to discover about work! **

1) ** Vocabulary ** - In a group come up with the following definitions, explain the difference and provide examples - Job  - Occupation  - Career

2) ** Roles of Women in the workplace ** - What are the typical jobs that women are thought to have in the workplace?

3) ** Roles of Men in the workplace ** - What are the typical jobs that men are thought to have in the workplace?

4) ** Should we consider gender to define our roles? **

5) ** Who are you? ** - We are going to use the [|Career Cruising]program to uncover what your like and dislikes are when it comes to work. Some of you have used this program before. It is always interesting to revisit career expoloration sites. We change with age (whether that is good or bad). As we grow with age, your like and dislikes also change. It could be something as easy as your likes in food, clothing, exercise routine (or lack of :-) ) to what kind of career you want. It is your job to uncover what profession will be best suited to your personality.


 * 6) What makes an effective employee?** We are going to have a guest speaker to take us through what is important to be an effective worker. What does the term effective worker even mean?

**Employ-ability Skills** - What does it take to get a job? Is it that easy to apply and get accepted right away? This is where we are going to look at how to become that employee that someone wants to higher.
