Caroline Jones (Campaign Manager) Blog - 4 August 2009

We received 154 emails and phone calls, providing specific feedback - and all of it positive! Here are just a few of the recurring themes ...

I heard Chris Bath on the Mix Breakfast show speaking about NCDW this morning. I was impressed with the fact that she was promoting Career Development to people of all ages and stages of life ... As I keep saying to my students, Career Development Week is every week...

NCDW provided the encouragement (and resources) to organise an event.

Linking to a national campaign, provided a higher profile for our event.

Because of the success of my NCDW event, I've now been asked to organise events at four other prisons.

I'm looking forward to organising something bigger next year.

Giving away your merchandise with a career development message was a very successful way for our event and the message to be remembered.

Hi, Anthony you're an inspiration ... Any good suggestions as to how I can ... [fulfil] a dream of playing in front of huge crowds or hearing my songs on the radio?

How do I become a Wiggle?

We're always so happy to receive your event stories and photos, you can send them in at any time (to contact_team@ncdw.com.au) because career development is much too important to be restricted to just one week a year - and because we love hearing from you!

National Career Development Week forms part of a larger year-long campaign and is an initiative of the Career Industry Council of Australia with funding from the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations.

Watch this space, for more campaign news as it happens.
