Using Type in Career Counseling

In today's challenging job market, counselors, coaches, and HR directors require skills that are at the forefront of assisting organizations with vocational counseling, job search strategies, and employee retention. In addition, counselors may find their clients in need of career development and assistance with career choices.

Learn how to use the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) instrument to assist clients in developing the skills necessary for optimal career strategies including best-fit careers, techniques for career development, empowerment, and decision making.

Isabel Myers' earliest goal for the Indicator was to help people choose careers that would call on their strengths and be interesting and exciting. This workshop, designed for career counselors already familiar with the MBTI instrument, explores the Indicator as a way to enhance the benefits of career counseling.

Topics covered in this workshop:

  • What the MBTI instrument can and cannot reveal about individual career choices
  • Skills to use with a variety of clients, from high school to those considering midlife career changes
  • Values clarification, planning and goal setting, skills assessment, decision-making strategies, type and work environments, and lifestyle issues
  • Information gathering, job search, and career patterns of MBTI types
  • Using the MBTI instrument with the Strong Interest Inventory® Scales
  • Lifelong type development skills
  • Challenges to career development

Tuition includes:

  • A notebook of program materials
  • Resource book, Looking at Type® Your Career
  • Document of completion

Daily Schedule 8:30am–5:00pm
