Begining my Personal Career Managment Workbook - Lesson 1

Lesson 1: Getting To Know Yourself Using Assessment

COMPLETE THE PROJECT: BEGIN YOUR PERSONAL CAREER MANAGEMENT WORKBOOK
Your Personal Career Management Workbook may be either an electronic file or a physical notebook. To create a physical book, divide a binder into sections, gather some folders, or choose any system that will allow you to separate or organize your papers into categories. No matter what format you use, the first thing you will add to your Workbook is a copy of the Lesson 1 Project described below.

Today's workforce requires people to express themselves and their ideas. Writing about who we are and what we can offer an employer is an especially important skill. This Project gives you a chance to describe your personal values and skills inventory.

In a short paper, describe your key values, core competencies, motivational type, and previous work experience (if applicable). Complete your paper with a list of 10 of your accomplishments from work, school, and other areas of your life, providing a short description of each.

Your Project should present a professional appearance (2 to 3 double-spaced pages, one-inch margins all around, in Times New Roman or Arial font and a type size no larger than 12) and contain accurate spelling and grammar. Put a copy of this Project in your Career Management Workbook and also submit a copy to your instructor according to the instructions below.
