Career Week is not about choosing a job title.
It is about understanding who you are before deciding where you are going.
This week’s theme, “Discovering Me, Discovering My Future,” shifts the spotlight to the most powerful factor in any career journey — the individual learner.
In a world where careers evolve faster than ever, success no longer belongs only to those with degrees. It belongs to those who understand their strengths, interests, values, and how they can use them to make a meaningful impact.
Career Week is where that discovery begins.
The Journey Starts Within
Before learners explore professions, pathways, or industries, they begin with a deeper question:
Who am I?
True career clarity is rooted in self-awareness. When learners understand what comes naturally to them, what excites them, and what matters to them, their future stops feeling uncertain and starts feeling intentional.
This week is designed to guide learners through that internal discovery — turning reflection into direction.
Why Self-Awareness Matters in Competency-Based Education (CBE)
Under the Competency-Based Education (CBE) framework, learning is not limited to academic performance. It is about identifying and developing competencies that translate into real-world capability.
As emphasized, career readiness begins with understanding personal competencies.
CBE encourages learners to recognize:
- Natural Talents – What do you do effortlessly?
- Core Interests – What keeps you curious and engaged?
- Personal Values – What kind of difference do you want to make?
- Personality Traits – How do you best interact, collaborate, and solve problems?
When learners connect these elements, career choices stop being guesses and become informed decisions.
What Learners Will Experience This Week
Career Week is intentionally interactive, reflective, and learner-led.
1. Exploration & Reflection
Learners will participate in guided sessions focused on personality mapping, interest inventories, and self-assessment activities that help them better understand themselves.
2. Mentorship & Career Pathways
Learners will connect their personal discoveries to real-world career sectors, including technology, arts, sciences, entrepreneurship, and more. Mentors will help bridge the gap between “who I am” and “where I can thrive.”
From Uncertainty to Confidence
The aim of Career Week is simple but powerful:
Move learners from “I don’t know” to confident, informed decision-making.
When learners understand themselves, the future becomes less intimidating and more exciting. Career paths begin to align naturally with identity, passion, and purpose.
