Presented as part of the Global Career Month

How can career development professionals move beyond acknowledging disruption to shaping solutions?

Join us for a FREE virtual event on November 19, during North America Career Week, to explore the path forward - how we can activate engagement, adapt with creative resilience and advocate more powerfully - together.

The North American collaboration between NCDA, CCDF and CERIC will bring together a dynamic panel of leaders to discuss taking action on today's pressing challenges - from youth and long-term unemployment to service cuts, rising living costs and the impacts of AI on work.

What to Expect

  • Mobilizing Advocacy: Strategies, tools and ideas to amplify your voice and those of the people and communities most affected.
  • Real-World Examples: Hear what's being done to drive change - and what you can take away for your own practice.
  • Sector Leadership: How career development itself is part of the solution, advocating both for the people we serve and for the profession as a whole.
  • Inspiration and Action: A celebration of the agency we all have to adapt in the face of turbulence and uncertainty.

Don't miss this opportunity to learn, connect, and act. Pre-registration is required.
