WORK IMMERSION SOUTH EAST-ASIA INSTITUTE OF TRADE AND TECHNOLOGY SETTING CAREER GOALS FOR FUTURE SUCCESS What is a Career Goal?
A career goal is a well-defined statement explaining
the profession that an individual intends to pursue throughout his career. It is important for every employee or job seeker to define their career goals clearly. It helps them to come up with effective action plans. Why Set Goals? Setting goals gives you long-term vision and short-term motivation. It focuses your acquisition of knowledge, and helps you to organize your time and your resources so that you can make the most of your life. By setting sharp, clearly defined goals, you can measure and take pride in the achievement of those goals, and you'll see forward progress in what might previously have seemed a long pointless grind. You will also raise your self-confidence, as you recognize your own ability and competence in achieving the goals that you've set. TYPES OF CAREER GOAL Types of Career Goal
1. Short-term goal Short term career goals are the actions that you must take for achieving your long-term career goals and are those that can be achieved within six months to three years. Types of Career Goal 2. LONG-TERM GOAL
Having long-term career goals, or milestones for progressing in your
career, is important for several reasons such as: 1. It can orient you toward career development. 2.You can develop plans for achieving each goal. 3. It can demonstrate your suitability for a job. 4. It can communicate positive personal traits. STRUCTURE OF SMART GOALS SMART GOAL Goals are part of every aspect of business/life and provide a sense of direction, motivation, a clear focus, and clarify importance. By setting goals, you are providing yourself with a target to aim for. A SMART goal is used to help guide goal setting. SMART is an acronym that stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely. Therefore, a SMART goal incorporates all of these criteria to help focus your efforts and increase the chances of achieving your goal. STRUCTURE OF SMART GOALS If you’re unfamiliar with the term, “SMART” used in this context is an acronym, with a focus on creating specific (and realistic) targets to hit. To that end, every SMART goal consists of five elements:
Specific. • The goal should have a clear, highly-specific endpoint. If your goal is too vague, it won’t be SMART. • Well defined, clear, and unambiguous . STRUCTURE OF SMART GOALS Measurable. • You need to be able to accurately track your progress, so you can judge when a goal will be met. • With specific criteria that measure your progress toward the accomplishment of the goal STRUCTURE OF SMART GOALS Attainable/Achievable • Of course, setting a goal that’s too ambitious will see you struggle to achieve it. This will sap at your motivation, both now and in the future. • Attainable and not impossible to achieve. Relevant/Realistic • The goal you pick should be pertinent to your chosen field, or should benefit you directly. • Within reach, realistic, and relevant to your life purpose STRUCTURE OF SMART GOALS Timely/Time-Bound. • With a clearly defined timeline, including a starting date and a target date. The purpose is to create urgency. • Setting a timeframe for your goal helps quantify it further, and helps keep your focus on track. LITERACY AND NUMERICY SKILLS Literacy Skills Literacy has been defined in various ways over the years. Previously, being able to sign your name was considered a reasonable sign of literacy. Our understanding of what it means to be literate has altered and current definitions have taken into account the literacy demands of the society we live in. A more recent definition of literacy is the understanding, evaluating, using and engaging with written texts to participate in society, to achieve personal goals and ambitions and to develop knowledge and potential. Five Basic Skills in Literacy 1. Phonemic Awareness Phonemic awareness (awareness of sounds) is the ability to hear and play with the individual sounds of language, to create new words using those sounds in different ways.
2. Fluency Fluent readers are able to read orally with appropriate speed, accuracy, and proper expression. Fluency is the ability to read as well as we speak and to make sense of the text without having to stop and decode each word. Five Basic Skills in Literacy 3. Vocabulary Vocabulary development is closely connected to comprehension. The larger the reader’s vocabulary (either oral or print), the easier it is to make sense of the text. There are two kinds of vocabulary: An active vocabulary includes words a person uses regularly in speech and writing. Words in the active vocabulary are those which a person can define and use in context. The words in a passive vocabulary are those which a person knows, but whose meaning he may have interpreted through context and use by others. Five Basic Skills in Literacy
5. Comprehension Comprehension is the complex cognitive process readers use to understand what they have read. Vocabulary development and instruction play a critical role in comprehension. What is numeracy?
Numeracy is defined as the ability to access, use and
interpret and communicate mathematical information and ideas, in order to engage in and manage the mathematical demands of various situations in adult years. To be numerate is to confidently and effectively use mathematics to meet the everyday demands of life. What is numeracy? Numeracy is important for individuals to develop logical thinking and reasoning strategies in their everyday activities. We need numeracy to solve problems and make sense of numbers, time, patterns and shapes for activities like cooking, reading receipts, reading instructions and even playing sport. It's the ability to confidently use math’s in daily life and the workplace. Numeracy can be counting, decomposing numbers, patterning, subitizing, estimating. What is numeracy? What is numeracy?
