Career Strategy Project
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
Beginning a meaningful human resources management career requires a well thought out strategy. A career strategy requires the individual to reflect upon and research the industries and organizations of interest, HRM jobs, and network to then build a future forward plan.
A career plan requires industry and job knowledge. It also requires networking--connecting and building reciprocal relationships with professionals in industry, organizations with those with similar professional interests. It is essential for students to build their career plan before they graduate in order to successfully launch their career upon graduation.
This individual assignment requires students to research industries, organizations and jobs of interests. Next, students attend HRM events OR meet with HRM professionals. Students are required to complete a minimum combination of two events or meetings.
The events may be hosted by an academic institution, employer, or professional association such as the HRPA, CPHR, SHRM, HRCI. All events are expected to be virtual. The events may be hosted in Ontario, Canada, or internationally. Each student will select their own events to attend. The events must be taking place between week one of the course and before the assignment is due. The event may be specific to human resources management or general business. If students are unsure of the relevancy of an event to this assignment they should refer to the professor for approval.
