Bob Carlton, Educational Consultant Rich Feller, Chief Scientist, YouScience By 2020, approximately 40% of the U.S. workforce will be engaged in quick “gigs” and project-based work. Most college seniors in 2020 will enter the workforce managing a series of projects, rather than dedicating years of service to any particular organization. This session will focus on how early career discovery during the college planning process can better prepare students for this new career reality, including tools for developing expertise in project settings aligned to the student’s aptitudes and interests.
