CareerWise is always on the lookout for the latest reports related to career development. Here are four reports that we found interesting this week.
Navigating Life’s Career Transitions: Essential Support And Services (CDAA)
This report outlines how career development practitioners are essential for effective career transitions. It explains the complexities and challenges of the career transitions Australians face and makes recommendations to ensure everyone builds a solid foundation in career management skills.
Labour Force Survey, July 2022 (Statistics Canada)
Employment was little changed (-31,000) in July, and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 4.9%. Employment declined among older and core-aged women, while it was up among older men.
From Low-Mobility to Rapid-Growth Jobs (The Conference Board of Canada)
This research finds that numerous transition paths exist between high-risk, low-mobility (HRLM) occupations and rapid-growth jobs, such as those in the clean economy. Defining those paths, linking them to economic development plans and workforce strategies, and supporting workers as they set out to follow them will be important tasks for provincial governments and their economic and skills development agencies.
Readiness and resilience: Mapping the contours of the Indigenous skills and employment ecosystem in Canada (Diversity Institute, Future Skills Centre, Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business)
Indigenous-led organizations and entrepreneurs are increasing and creating new employment opportunities in communities across the country. This research helps uncover the current state of programs available to Indigenous jobseekers, and enables the assessment of whether programming includes intersectional and Indigenous-specific approaches to skills development.
