Let’s reveal your greatness
Blueprint Career Services is our innovative, market-driven program. Built on a foundation of competitive and environmental scans, our career services programming emphasizes the development of your strengths. The strengths focus will give you a chance to learn more about yourself. This will have a positive impact on your career while also encouraging personal growth and enrichment, which are important in developing a lifelong learning mindset. These are the key components to our approach to career services:
An intentional move away from transactional services like CV building and interview preparation towards services to build your confidence.
Helping you to leverage the power of your own narrative to communicate your successes and strengths.
Providing you with a range of programming that will empower you to take control of the direction of your personal and career growth.
Events and Panels
Join a webinar
Join us for opportunities to learn from industry experts and past learners on their career paths, trends, insights, and advice on how to apply these learnings. In addition to the moderated panel sessions, some events will have the added component of informal networking (through breakout rooms) embedded in these events.
Blueprint Real Talk: How to Progress Your Career After Age 55

Lisa Taylor, Founder and CEO of Challenge Factory will lead the discussion on finding your Legacy Career® "sweet spot" and how to spend your next chapter doing work you love (that pays the bills).

Career Wayfinding
A three-part cohort-based program for those in career transition, is an interactive series which uses principles of design thinking to tackle those complex challenges that can sometimes cause us to struggle with, "where do I start?" These are often referred to as the "wicked problems" of life and career navigation.
CliftonStrengths
As a pillar of our Blueprint services, we are pleased to offer CliftonStrengths programming. The CliftonStrengths assessment, a tool developed by the Gallup Organization, measures naturally recurring patterns of thought, feelings, and behaviours to help raise your awareness of your own strengths. Our interactive workshops and coaching help empower you to understand your strengths and how you can apply them in your personal and professional decision-making.
