In talking about career development for children as young as three to six years old (Career Buzz, May 14, 2014<\/a>),\u00a0Sarah Brown<\/strong>\u00a0emphasized the importance of the uniqueness of each child. Even before setting kids loose to play in an animated and online “Career Town,” Sarah, who’s the product manager for ccSpark! from Career Cruising, said you need to\u00a0help kids become more aware of their own preferences<\/strong>. Drawing on Piaget’s theory of development, Sarah said the program asks\u00a0kids, “How many people are in your family? What is your favourite colour?”<\/p>\n

Simple questions about one’s unique situation and preferences help make kids more aware of theirown preferences and uniqueness, which down the road can aid in career choice making.<\/strong>\u00a0No, the program doesn’t aim to make kids choose a career at such a young age, but yes, it does help build self-awareness, and awareness of actual careers. For example, in the hospital in Career Town work more than just doctors and nurses — just like in a real hospital.<\/p>\n

What are the clues that apply to you?<\/strong>\u00a0In today’s fast-paced world of work it’s easy to lose sight of how well our work aligns with our own preferences. No, there’s no such thing as a soul-mate career where all your preferences are satisfied all the time. However, there is a big difference between a role that aligns with 80% of your preferences, strengths and desires, and one that aligns with only 20%.\u00a0Try this:<\/strong>\u00a0 Quick: What’s your favourite colour? ____ \u00a0What’s your favourite number? ____ \u00a0What’s most important to you in a job? ____. \u00a0 Now, from 1 (low) to 10 (high), how much are you satisfying that desire from question 3, at work? What can you do to increase the amount by one point?<\/p>\n

Listen to the whole interview<\/a>\u00a0with Sarah Brown and\u00a0Kyle Phillips<\/strong>\u00a0of\u00a0Career Cruising<\/a>, and\u00a0Dave Weir<\/strong>Elementary Student Success Teacher with Hamilton Wentworth School Board.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
