Presenters

  • Sandy Joiner, Senior Career Counselor with Fairview Health Services/Career Services Development
    Healing Job Wounds: Acknowledging, Healing and Moving Forward In one of her several job transitions, Sandy Joiner worked on identifying and working through negative experiences from some of her previous jobs. Sandy will share her process along with the worksheet she developed. Discover the potential that this approach might have for helping you and clients to get unstuck.
  • Kathie Kosharek, Employment Counselor with Minnesota Workforce Center
    We all know it's important for our clients to write resumes that reflect their accomplishments as well other aspects about themselves that will set them apart from the competition. Yet it's difficult for most people to readily and easily identify what makes them distinctive. This tool will help clients begin to assess not only some of their accomplishments, but also their work style and the traits that make them effective at what they do.

  • Molly Conlin Peterson, Career Coach and founder of Imagine Coaching Using the concept of “career narrative” you will learn strategies to assess your clients’ career dreams. Using elements from story such as “back story”, “future selves”, and “turning points” you can help clients assess goals and find career happiness. Join us for this informative and interactive session.

This is an interactive session that will allow you to learn and practice informal assessment strategies that local "experts" in the field use successfully with their clients.

If you have questions, please call Nancy Fraasch at 952-525-1475, ext 304
