Designing and Implementing Career Interventions. A Handbook for Effective Practice, 2nd Edition
Sampson, James P., Jr.; Lenz, Janet G.
National Career Development Association
The purpose of this Handbook is to stimulate discussion among senior managers, managers, practitioners, administrative staff, collaborating partners, and stakeholders about how staff members can make the most effective use of their time in implementing changes in the design and delivery of career interventions for adolescents and adults who need assistance in making educational, occupational, and employment decisions. Following this eight-step model implementation plan, Handbook users will first explore the nature of career interventions, sample theoretical applications, and evaluation and accountability strategies. The relevance of cultural and national factors and extensive appendices can be used in supporting a diverse group of individuals worldwide in implementing career interventions. This new edition makes an important change in terminology from career programs to career interventions. The content of the second edition has been revised to be more focused, current, and usable. While reducing emphasis on CIP theory, the implementation model is enhanced with an exploration of the role of collaborating partners/stakeholders, organizational size, and the impact of intervention fidelity. More links have been added, making the ebook especially helpful. Along with the appendices, updated PowerPoint presentations are provided to assist in training others on the Handbooks' content and application of the model.
