CERIC is recruiting participants for a set of virtual Idea Exchanges to understand the current state of career exploration and planning in high schools across Canada, from the perspective of students as well as educators. These insights will help to inform the development of career education initiatives at the secondary school level. 

Idea Exchange
Open Call for High School Guidance Counsellors, Educators & Administrators
How Are You Supporting Student Career Planning? 

•  Monday, June 3, 6:30 pm – 7:45 pm ET (75 minutes) 

If you are a high school education professional – or parent of a teenager – please share the opportunity to participate in the student Idea Exchange. We encourage members of historically under-represented groups to apply. 

These dynamic discussions – to be conducted over Zoom – will centre around experiences, needs and aspirations related to student post-secondary career exploration and planning. We are seeking to gather insights into how educators, families and communities can better support students to begin charting their work-life journeys. As everyone navigates a fast-changing world, we want to identify what’s working and what’s not: 

• What career guidance is being given now? 
• What do you wish was available? 
• What, if anything, is holding you back? 

If you’re interested in participating in this national conversation, apply by Monday, May 13: https://ceric.ca/special-initiatives/high-school-idea-exchange/ Spaces are limited, so don’t miss out on this opportunity to make a difference in students’ futures.
