Thinking About Change

Feeling the need to explore a radical career change is common in mid life. When the main drive for change comes from personal choice you have the opportunity to explore at your own pace.

Older workers life experience, knowledge of self, knowledge of the working world, and practiced skills offer tremendous advantages to the career planning process.

Take a few minutes to write down what you consider the important things you've learned about working well with others, achieving your goals, what you enjoy most, and the skills you've developed to date.

    Explore the sections below to identify and research your options.
