Not sure what your next career step should be? Whether you’re starting a career, considering a change, or looking to move forward in your current field, the new Career Toolkit in Brightspace can help you create a plan and take action. The Career Toolkit is a free, self-paced resource designed to help SUNY Empire students navigate career planning with practical tools and activities. The toolkit includes six short modules, so you can work through the entire resource at your own pace or focus on the topics that are most relevant to you right now.
What You’ll Find in the Career Toolkit
Each module focuses on an important part of career planning, from understanding yourself and your skills to exploring possibilities and identifying your next steps. You’ll have opportunities to reflect on your interests, strengths, values, and goals while learning strategies you can use throughout your career.
The toolkit is designed with SUNY Empire students in mind. Whether you’re balancing work, family, and school; returning to the workforce; exploring a new career direction; or working toward advancement, the activities can help you connect what you’re learning at SUNY Empire to where you want to go next.
Make Your Career Plan a Priority
Career planning doesn’t have to mean figuring out your entire future at once. Sometimes, the most important step is simply identifying what comes next. The Career Toolkit can help you:
- Reflect on your strengths, interests, and career goals
- Identify skills and experiences you can bring to the workplace
- Explore career options and pathways
- Set meaningful and achievable career goals
- Identify resources and strategies to support your career development
- Create an action plan for your next steps
