The Career Diamond: A 4-Year Plan for Your Future

Career development is a process that begins in childhood and continues throughout life. You may change your job and your career several times as your needs and interests evolve. Recent projections suggest that an individual may change jobs 10 or more times and have as many as 6 or 7 different careers throughout their working lives. While you are in college, you are acquiring the skills and experiences that will form an important part of the foundation for your future career(s).

Your career development shouldn't be a hit-or-miss process, your college career plan can be visualized as a diamond. Specific activities are identified in each stage that would be appropriate for your progress however this is not a complete list.
