This workshop is designed for professionals just starting out with career clients or for those who want to brush off the cobwebs and increase their depth and breadth of career knowledge. The aim is to have a practical day of learning where we cover some theory, but focus on the process of career coaching. This will include practice issues and common challenges, and to walk away with a structure in which to begin working in this field.
CPD Points: 7 CEUs
