Teacher Discussion (20 min)

STRATEGIES ON PERSONAL AND CAREER COMPETENCE

 Developing Multiple Plans. Developing flexibility in career planning requires a sense of purpose, problem
solving skills, and several plans.
 Self-Advocacy and Marketing. In order to better package one’s self and become marketable, there is a need
to develop communication skills, self-confidence, organizational adaptability, and effectiveness in human
relations.
 Managing Changing Relationships. The emotional and social changes adolescents experience can challenge
young people as they try to cope with barriers in the education system and labor market.
 Meeting Basic Needs. These needs include having a sense of meaning in life, physical and emotional security,
and basic structure in relationships and living.
 Coping with Stress. Coping with stress is associated with various competencies such as organizational
adaptability, human relations, problem solving, and self-confidence. Particular strategies for stress
management include relaxation techniques, managing ‘self-talk,’ focusing, and using support systems.
 Bridging Programs. Many young people lack “hands-on” experience as they attempt to enter the world of
work.
 Information and Information Access. The challenge in the information age is on how to turn information
into personally relevant knowledge.
