Modernizing Career Navigation in the United States (JFF)

To help all students and jobseekers better navigate the rapidly changing job market and make informed choices about their educational and career paths, the United States must make systemic reforms and strategic investments in career services and navigational supports. Drawing on the insights of leading practitioners from education and workforce development, this brief lays out a people-centred vision for career navigation and offers key policy recommendations for strengthening national infrastructure while enabling high-quality localized solutions.

Educational pathways of individuals who discontinue their apprenticeship programs (Statistics Canada)

According to the 2015 National Apprenticeship Survey, the most commonly stated reasons for not completing an apprenticeship program were job instability, receiving a better job offer and financial constraints. This survey also showed that apprentices who dropped out of their programs experienced difficulties securing permanent employment with adequate benefits and were more likely to be self-employed.
