Career Teaching Academy

NCDA's new Career Teaching Academy (CTA) will be geared toward those in higher education who teach (or plan to teach) undergraduate career planning courses.

This academy for NCDA members is for select career professionals who are new, or began teaching career planning courses within the last 5 years in a higher education setting. Best practices and progress in the area of career planning course development across the profession will be shared. Participants will discuss topics such as diversity and inclusion and challenges facing students after 2020. Additionally, participants will hear from career development experts, share ideas, and revise their existing syllabi.
