The Human Skills Gap: Empowering Our Youth with the Missing Piece

Presented by Courtney Reilly and Chris Mackey

The potential of today's youth is immense, while the challenges they face to reach that promising future are real and daunting. To thrive in an unprecedented time of change and uncertainty requires skills that are durable, transferable, and most of all, uniquely human. The good news: every student already has a subset of these skills! The bad news: too many never realize it and their potential is sidelined.

Educators have an incredible opportunity to unlock the potential of our next generation. Making human skills a core - and explicit - part of the everyday classroom experience will lead to engagement, well-being, and thriving communities.

Chris Mackey and Courtney Reilly will share the experiences that drive their determination to equip today’s youth with human skills, and how they created Skillsline to fill the gap in knowledge and awareness of the human skills essential to a bright future for us all.

Partners or Silos? Reimagining Education & Workforce Development

Presented by: Sarah Burns and Peter Callstrom

Too often, education and workforce systems operate in separate worlds. The school experience should prepare students for the world of work, yet far too many students are not exposed to a myriad of career possibilities – and they do not understand their unique strengths, interests, and values. The workforce development system then tries to support job seekers who are little prepared or unclear on what they want to do. The San Diego Workforce Partnership is collaborating with school districts across the county to disrupt this disconnect, providing training, tools, and strategies to support all students in accessing the world of work.

The NCDA 2019 Webinar series presents:

Working with Third Party Providers to Support International Students’ Career Development

Presented by:

Kendra Northington, Kwan Segal, Elif Balin,
Nicole Anderson, and Sonia Liang

According to the survey research results of the NCDA International Student Services Committee (ISSC), there are consistent challenges in higher education to provide effective career services to international students. Some common struggles are the complexity of job and internship search processes, employer perceptions about international student work permit and visa procedures, and limited network and resources for international students in the U.S. The NCDA-ISSC recognizes the importance of addressing third-party service providers and resources outside of higher education settings that often emerge as a response to the unmet career development needs of international students. Third-party providers can be non-profit or for-profit organizations that offer career resources and job search platforms to international students. They also include technological platforms that disseminate or facilitate job opportunities in the U.S. and other countries.

Career development professionals need to become more familiar and competent with these services to assess their credibility and potential usefulness to meet international students’ career needs. This webinar aims to help career development professionals increase their awareness and gain more knowledge regarding the ethical and effective use of third party providers and resources as additional resources.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

the functions and trends of third-party providers in the U.S. and how they can address the challenges of supporting international students in the higher education setting;
the various types of third-party providers that provide career services to international students, including the service features, pros and cons, and examples;
how to make ethical and multiculturally competent decisions when working with third-party providers
