The College to Career Road Map:
A Four-Year Guide to Coaching Your Student

The Parent Edition of The College to Career Road Map helps you guide your college student through the career exploration and decision-making process. You'll learn how to take on the role of career development coach—someone who doesn't have all the answers but who instead helps your student help himself/herself.

The book also outlines the academic and experiential activities that are most critical for students to work on during their college years, so that they can confidently discern their future direction and boost their chances of landing a satisfying job after graduation.

"Parents need to wear many different hats, including that of career coach. This book gives you everything you'd ever need to make that hat fit."

For College Students (current and future)

The College to Career Road Map:
A Four-Year Guide to Finding Your Path

The Student Edition of The College to Career Road Map helps college students discover the specific academic and experiential activities they can pursue—during each of their years in school, freshman through senior—to give themselves the best chance of landing a great job after graduation.

By completing these activities and, as importantly, reflecting upon them, students develop a road map for their future careers, uncover opportunities and possibilities they’ve never thought about before, and reduce their stress.

"By providing a specific and detailed roster of experiences and action items that students should check off during each of their four years in school, The College to Career Road Map affords students the opportunity to hone their talents, build their skillsets, take advantage of available resources, and focus on the small but critical steps that lead to an intelligent career decision."

They Don't Teach Corporate in College

"[This book] helps students work on their goals throughout their college careers—not just in the year or two before graduation—and this developmental approach is one of the strengths of the book. Another strength is that the book covers not only the what but also the why and how of each activity, helping students understand the bigger picture behind the exercises."
