Hi Maureen,

I absolutely love Norte Dame's approach to career development as this is the exact formula that I use in private practice! It's so exciting to see such a fine University approach career development as I was taught in graduate school and as I use with private clients... I find that while virtually all clients enjoy and honor the VIPS process many struggle with the "The Decision" which is of course understandable. Making a career decision can be overwhelming and scary especially for young people. I like the idea of having a seminar specifically dedicated to the “The Decision.” I am in the process of developing a flow chart about the career-decision making processes and the psychological attributes that are necessary to achieve each step of the process. I would enjoy sharing this with you in a separate email.

Thank you again for a wonderful article. It is my hope that more universities follow Notre Dame’s approach to assisting students.

Sincerely,

Barbara Sedgwick-Billimoria M.Ed.

Maureen,
This is an excellent insightful article! It is wonderful to see other colleges and universities implementing career programs to educate our students on career development. You shared great insight into activities and best practices that many other universities could utilize as well. Thanks for sharing!
