    Graduate School Researchers | Research Conference for Careers Practitioners

    Posted by Elayne Greeley on February 17, 2023 at 8:29 am

    When you think of research and researchers one often thinks of PhD studies. There is a world of graduate students undertaking fascinating projects that may never make it to publication. @Sareena introduced some of us to The Career Development Institute’s Home (thecdi.net) annual <b style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; color: var(–bb-body-text-color);”>Research Conference for Careers Practitioners. I participated yesterday along with @dianaflemming and meet a ton of fascinating CDPs undertaking research on like, career development with bereaved parents, best career theories for working with creative arts students, the impact of digitalization on CDPs, chronic illness and cd and so much more. I submitted a poster and video which was one of my first opportunities to talk about my 2021 research on how CDPs learn.

    I strongly encourage you to share this opportunity with graduate students in your network. The only downside is jumping online at 5:30am.

    As promised, it was a fabulous conference. I attended sessions on gender identity and career development, as well as a really interesting session on social justice. Watch for other CDI or NICEC conferences if you are conducting research (or curious about what that might entail), if you have participated in research projects, or just recognize that – as a CDP – you are a researcher-in-action every single day as you listen to people’s stories and draw out the golden threads of data that inform your good practice. Regardless, these conferences are amazing opportunities to learn, share your wisdom, and meet incredible peers from all over the world from the comfort of your own couch.

Career Development Professional Centre

Help us cultivate a community we all enjoy by reviewing and following the Code of Conduct.  

Our Purpose  

Thank you for being a part of the online CDPC social learning community. To ensure that all members have the best possible experience, we have a few ground rules that we ask everyone to adhere to. This code of conduct applies equally to every person in the community and is intended to foster an online space that is inclusive, safe, and welcoming to all. 

Community Rules 

Be welcoming 

We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports people of all backgrounds and identities. We aim to create and facilitate a community that promotes excellence and innovation in career and workforce development. Please extend respect to all members; we all come from different backgrounds and levels of knowledge and there is no such thing as a stupid question. 

Be respectful 

We won’t all agree all the time, but when we disagree don’t let those disagreements turn into personal attacks. A community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened will not be a productive one. Instead, when having discussions in the online community, create productive conversations around the content being presented, not the person behind the content. Any post that is determined to be “hate speech” towards any individual or group will be deleted, and the user account may be locked until an investigation regarding the post has been concluded. The user may be given a written warning or removed from the CPDC community platform depending on the findings of the investigation.  

Hate Speech could include and is not limited to:  

  • Violent threats or language directed against another person 
  • Discriminatory jokes, language, or materials 
  • Defamatory or abusive language or materials 
  • Profane or illegal materials 
  • Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior 

A good rule of thumb is to never post anything that you wouldn’t be comfortable with the world seeing or that you wouldn’t want anyone knowing came from you. We ask that you keep in mind the focus of this community, which is building excellence and innovation in career and workforce development for all individuals.  

Be considerate of the purpose of the community 

This community will be focused on building excellence and discussing innovation in the career and workforce development field. The goal of this community is to communicate goals, challenges, constructive feedback, and questions in relation to career and workforce development. The community should be a place for continued learning and development as well as a place to discuss the future of our field (solicitation without written consent by the Project or Advisory team, is strictly prohibited). Any post that is determined to be soliciting any individual or group will be deleted, and the user account may be locked until an investigation regarding the post has been concluded. The user may be given a written warning or removed from the CPDC community platform depending on the findings of the investigation. 

Post your discussions or documents in the most appropriate group or topic 

Make reasonable efforts to ensure that posts and materials are allocated to the appropriate group or topic. This will prevent cluttering the community and make it easier for everyone to find the information that they are seeking. Individuals who do this repeatedly will be contacted by one of the group admins and asked to follow these guidelines.  

Privacy and Release of Information  

CDPC-CEDC will not release your information to any third-party agencies.  

Group Admins 

There are four group admins who are available to you. Below are their names and their spoken language. 

Heather Powell | Anglophone 

Gabrielle St-Cyr | Francophone/Anglophone 

Florence Desrochers | Francophone/Anglophone

Muriel Andoblé-Yao | Francophone

Thank you and welcome to the CDPC Community!
