If you’ve used Hopin before, you know how seamless it is to navigate different sessions, participate in discussions, and connect with fellow delegates. You’ll be able to ask questions, share insights, and be part of the conversation, while watching our speakers during plenary sessions. Our conference networking feature lets you connect randomly with others for quick chats—just like those coffee line conversations or lunchtime interactions at physical events.
In addition to the Plenary sessions, we’ve curated three dynamic workshops that promise to be both informative and thought-provoking:
Day 1 Workshop 1: Evolving career development practice to remain a sustainable profession
Presenter: Professor Siobhan Neary, Head of iCeGS, University of Derby, UK
This workshop explores the use of Whitchurch’s concept of the third space professional (2015) and presents a landscape where the embedding of careers work within the curriculum is creating a new quasi-academic role for higher education careers practitioners and previously defined boundaries become more transparent. This evolutionary model starts to question how career guidance delivery may need to advance to remain credible and to meet expectations of policy makers and funders more broadly. Alignment to an educative paradigm and curriculum delivery also reflects the direction of travel for English schools and colleges with the dominance of the Gatsby benchmarks. These debates contribute to an interesting examination as to the future sustainability of careers as a profession and the skills, knowledge and abilities that will be most valued.
Day 1 Workshop 2: Embedding the concept of Decent Work in career development learning
Presenters: Fiona Christie (Senior lecturer and NICEC Fellow) and Eileen Cunningham (Senior lecturer), Decent Work and Productivity Research Centre, Faculty of Business and Law, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK
In this workshop we will outline theoretical ideas that have been useful in the development of a Decent Work informed approach to career learning (i.e., ‘Psychology of Working theory’ and ‘Career guidance for social justice’) and share findings from recent research about young people in precarious work which highlight questions about developing critical consciousness in careers practice. We will also share insights about a current project with the ‘Greater Manchester Good Employment Charter team’ to develop a resource entitled ‘What students and graduates need to know about Good Work’ and introduce a practitioner teaching guide that has been created to support the use of this resource.
Day 2 Workshop 3: Introduction to the framework for environmentally sustainable career guidance
Presenters: Miriam Dimsits, Associate Professor, VIA University, Denmark and Tristram Hooley, Professor of Career Education, Inland Norway University
This workshop will explore a new research-based framework for the practice of environmentally sustainable career guidance. The session will begin with a presentation of five theoretical dimensions for sustainable career guidance which explore how people can: connect their careers with the world (affective), build solidarity with the world through careering (social-ecological), learn about careers in a sustainable world (educational), imagine and invent the world as they career (transformational), change the world through their career (political-ideological). Participants are invited to discuss this framework in connection to concrete career guidance activities, further development of career guidance practice and the professional development of career guidance practitioners’ skills and competences in relation to this practice. The workshop provides opportunities for participants to reflect on current practice and re-evaluate the development of an environmentally sustainable career guidance practice.
Day 2 Sustainability World Café - this will offer roundtable discussions where you can share your views and connect with other virtual delegates.
In addition, our team will be available throughout the event to assist with technical issues, platform familiarity, and connecting you with fellow attendees and recordings of each session will be available afterwards so that you can catch up if you missed the live stream.
