What is Career Development?
Career development is the lifelong process of managing learning, work, leisure and transitions in order to move towards a personally determined and evolving future for both private and public good. (Career Industry Council of Australia 2006; OECD, 2004)).
“Career development learning puts students at the heart of the learning process”(Prof Tony Watts, NAGCAS ALTC Symposium, June 2008)

The literature: CD & Social Inclusion
• awareness, aspiration, educational attainment (Bradley, 2008)
• relationship between career development and social justice is explicit within the career development literature internationally (e.g., S. S. Hansen, 2003; Hartung & Blustein, 2002; Irving, 2005; K. M. O'Brien, 2001)
• pivotal in the work of access, equity and social justice (McIlveen, Everton, & Clarke, 2005)

The literature: FYE
• sense of vocational purpose, (Wilson & Lizzio, 2006)
• identify and monitor student purpose and reasons for attending university due to the connections to retention, satisfaction, academic performance and engagement amongst non traditional cohorts (James, Krause and Jennings, 2010)
• placing students at the heart of the learning process (Watts, 2008)

Learning about opportunities
• gaining information about opportunities from print, online material and individuals (via networking and informational interviewing)
• Immersion in work related experiences
• Learning is continually modified by experience (Kolb, 1984)
• CDL aligns with Kolb’s experiential learning (Patton & McMahon, 2001)

WiL and CDL: WiL as an enabling strategy of CDL
• “Work-related learning involves: learning about oneself; learning and practising skills and personal attributes of value in the world-of-work; experiencing the world-of-work in order to provide insights and learning into the world-of-work associated with one's university studies; and experiencing and learning how to learn and manage oneself in a range of situations, including those found at work”. (Moreland, 2005, p. 4)

WiL v Work Related Learning
• WRL can occur inside and outside the curriculum, and outside of the university itself in paid and paid work, in mentoring , in group projects, business simulations. Students learn wherever the experience occurs (Moreland, 2005)
