Career Development and Learning - Families Prefer Centers
from: www.CareerExposed.comThe YWCA (Young Women's Christian Association) and YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) are among some of the most well known career development and learning centers in the United States of America and elsewhere. Both are non-profit associations with emphasis on creating social and career opportunities for both women and men of any age and race. They provide child care for working parents as well as training and employment openings for adults. Part of their agenda is to promote spiritual, emotional, and physical growth through activities of the body and mind.
Both career development and learning centers provide exercise programs for the young to the seniors. This includes the use of a large swimming pool with sometimes public use and private use hours. Some work is done on paid services while others volunteer. Each aid becomes a mentor to kids and adults in need of their services. Caring, respect, honesty and responsibility are taught to their members and staff.
Like the YMCA and YWCA, other career development and learning centers provide free and low fee classes to the public. These classes cover skills needed in professional careers like CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), or recreation and fitness, like water basketball, kickboxing, exercise programs, volleyball and aerobics.
Career development and learning directors insist on programs for individuals with learning disabilities. They require all program instructors to have a caring and nurturing attitude towards everyone.
Most universities, institutions and colleges include studies on career development and learning with some online programs offered to the students. A few also include non-credit classes, traditional or vocational, for the public. Unlike credit college courses, the non-credit courses generally run for one day to a few weeks with a minimal fee. Generally, public centers provide more classes for the family to use together than colleges and universities.
With the United States of America ever growing population and need for family and career planning, career development and learning centers continue to be created to mentor, inform and educate. There are, of course, centers made specifically to work with kids, some for adults working to get a job and to better themselves, but several are open as a way for families to learn together and be together in the ever changing world.
To locate a career development and learning center in your area search a local phone book or directory, or log on online and type in your hometown and area. Call or visit to learn how to join. Ask how to become a mentor if you have a desire to teach, have a caring attitude and work well with people.
