These books are a ‘quick read’, yet provide busy career development facilitators with a comprehensive evidence-based overview of adolescent career development and cost-effective approach to career service delivery in Australian schools.
This booklet is intended for school staff who may be new to the field of career development as well as those wishing to brush up on their knowledge and understanding. You may be delivering a career education course for the first time, or perhaps you are career practitioner who has just started out. On the other hand, you may be a seasoned career practitioner wanting to refresh your knowledge. This practical text supports career development facilitators in the application of career theories and related tools and techniques to address the typical career questions of upper middle and secondary school students and provide quality of career services in schools.

This practical booklet explains the differentiated career service delivery model, developed at Florida State University. This model involves assessing student readiness for career decision making and then matching the type of career intervention to level of readiness. The desired result of this delivery method is that all students receive a level of career service aligned to their career development needs. Students low in readiness for career decision making receive one-to-one career counselling, students with moderate career decision making readiness have group interventions. Students with a high level of readiness for career decision making have more self-directed interventions.
