Career Foundations II

Organizational Effectiveness is pleased to announce that the Career Foundations workshop has been re-designed to better meet the career development needs of University of Minnesota employees.  To designate this change, the workshop has been renamed Career Foundations II.

Career Foundations II is a career development workshop for University of Minnesota employees who want to grow in their jobs or apply their skills to another unit/department, or to help them make difficult career decisions.

The re-design includes moving from two half-days of classroom to one half-day, with an equal amount of online pre-work learning.  This allows participants more time for interactive experience in the classroom.

In the new format, participants will complete pre-work including:

• Watch the "MBTI" Instructional Video
• Complete three exercises
• Complete career assessments on-line (MBTI Step II-Q, Strong Interest Inventory)

Classroom activities will include:

• Receiving the Interpretation Report for both assessments
• Participating in individual and small group exercises to enhance learning and application

There is a $61.00 fee for the MBTI and Strong assessments for this course.  Fees must be paid 5 days before the workshop.  Payment of fees and completion of assessments is a requirement for attending the workshop.
