We have completed our first group meetings, and eight attendees have learned their RIASEC codes for the Self-Directed Search, and have looked at a few of the jobs typically aligned with those codes.
One of the primary goals of this course is to introduce these concepts to the group and provide a foundation for moving forward with this information and additional information received from assessments administered prior to our meeting.
In our next weekend meeting, we will begin to share our findings and discuss the types of jobs or activities from our past that were rewarding and meaningful. Each participant will receive valuable feedback from their peers in the group and well as insights I can provide from my experience with the temperaments that seem to suit certain activities.
One of my hopes for all of the attendees is that the core information they receive about themselves in this process will help them to move forward with either a new career or with a new attitude and sense of understanding in their current life focus.

Thanks, Dr. Harkness, for making this process more transparent for many who are not aware of how you work. By explaining more about the exercises and the steps you take, I hope many additional people can enjoy successes similar to those you have helped others achieve in your re-careering program.
