Join your CACEE and career development professional colleagues from across Canada and the globe for this 3-part webinar series presented in proud partnership with CERIC!

This series features the work of and will be delivered by William E. Donald, Associate Professor of Sustainable Careers and Human Resource Management at Southampton Business School at the University of Southampton (UK).

 

Overview of the Webinar Series

Post-secondary education represents a crucial opportunity for students to lay the foundation for sustainable and fulfilling careers. However, traditional employability models have often focused narrowly on skills and attributes, overlooking the broader range of personal resources—collectively known as “employability capital—and external factors that influence long-term career success. This narrow focus leaves students underprepared to navigate complex career environments and thrive over time.

In response, this webinar introduces the Employability Capital Growth Model (ECGM), a comprehensive framework that integrates nine forms of employability capital, external factors and time dimensions. By leveraging the ECGM, students can identify and pursue personal outcomes that matter most to them, such as career progress, earnings, well-being, or career satisfaction. Together, we will explore how the ECGM can be integrated seamlessly into your career centre’s existing approaches, equipping career development professionals to prepare students for sustainable careers and contribute to a thriving career ecosystem.

Why Attend?

This webinar series offers research-based insights, real-world examples and actionable advice to enhance your practice as a career development professional. You will gain a deep understanding of the ECGM and how it has been successfully applied in a range of contexts. Insights from academics and career development practitioners across 16 countries and six continents, based on its use with approximately 1,500 students from diverse backgrounds, will help you understand the model’s benefits and limitations.

Additionally, you will have the opportunity to engage in an interactive session, where you will practice using the ECGM and experience its application firsthand. This hands-on approach will offer you proficiency in a 10-step process that can be applied in 1:1 sessions, small groups or larger workshops to guide students effectively.

By the end of this series, you will be equipped to integrate the ECGM into your practice, empowering your students and clients to achieve meaningful and sustainable career outcomes.
