Join Philly Career Launch for Our Career Exploration Series

By Annette M. RSS Mon, September 30, 2024

Philly Career Launch Career Exploration Workshop sessions will take place in September, October, and November at various Free Library locations and community hubs throughout Philadelphia.

Have you experienced job disruption over the past few years? Are you stuck in a low-paying job or want a better employment situation? Here’s your chance to take hold of your future. Join us for a Philly Career Launch Career Exploration Workshop. Explore careers that build on your strengths and interests and get hands-on experience with online resources. 

Do you like working with your hands and are a visual thinker? Then a career in construction, skilled trades, or manufacturing might be for you. Or maybe you describe yourself as a compassionate and caring person who is detail-oriented, in which case you could consider a healthcare career. Like to play video games? You wouldn’t be the first gamer to go into coding! There are thousands of careers out there and the Career Exploration Workshop will help you get your new career off the ground. This unique session combines self-reflection, small group discussion, and information sharing.
