Thank you for requesting the Career Readiness Curriculum! Click this link to access the guide.
The Career Readiness Curriculum includes 5 topics:
1. Core Lessons: Understanding the perceptions, assumptions, and identities involved in the job search
2. All About You: Discovering personal interests, skills, and values
3. Get Ready: Crafting resumes, cover letters and personal pitches
4. The Search: Searching for an applying for jobs
5. Ace the Interview: Mastering the art of the interview to land the job
This curriculum includes facilitator lesson plans, slide decks, and handouts for participants. The introduction provides important context for facilitators.
Agencies can use the curriculum lessons sequentially or choose to implement a smaller set of lessons based on their program structure and time with participants. It is our intent that training around curriculum delivery and facilitation (the how) coupled with concrete job search curriculum and activities grounded in brain science research (the what) will positively impact outcomes for people of color in the workforce development system.
