Douglas E. Welch (http://douglasewelch.com) presents to the class Career Development – Theories and Techniques at Pepperdine Graduate School of Education & Psychology taught by fellow CareerCamp Co-Chair, Danielle Gruen

The two biggest challenges are deciding what you want to do as a career and then building the career you deserve once you decide.

Transcript:

Perhaps you don’t like working with young children. My wife discovered then when she went to student teach. She got her education degree and had to go off and do student teaching right? For that last year of college experience and she very quickly realized that “Oh, I can’t work with young kids. No, I feel so sorry for them. Oh Bobby doesn’t have good shoes” and she just wants to mother them not be a teacher to them.
