Navigating Non-Linear Career Paths

Self-awareness of your skills, strengths and knowledge is one of the greatest drivers of growth in your career journey. Even more so, the ability to recognize and leverage your transferable skills can set you apart.

This 60-minute workshop will guide participants through the process of identifying skills and professionals experiences that can be applied across roles, industries and projects. Through scenario-based learning and reflection, you will learn practical techniques to identify and assess your skills and confidently position them for future opportunities.

This event is available to anyone PWYC with a suggested donation of $29. This event is included as part of Career Collective membership.

Who is this for?

• “I’m curious about tech and code in general”
• “I am a complete beginner when it comes to coding”
• “I have some coding skills but I’m looking to try my hand at something new!”
• “I have financial barriers that make it hard to pay for classes and training”
• “I’m not sure if I belong in tech— I wish I saw more people like me leading this industry!”

This event is open to all adults 18+, with a focus on supporting those from equity-deserving communities who continue to be underrepresented in the tech sector and in tech-enabled roles. These communities include those who identify as cis women, trans women, trans men, non-binary people, as well as Black, Indigenous and Racialized people, newcomers and people from low-income communities.
