Written Assignment Rubric

For this assignment you will turn in a 1 page Word document (.doc) which includes your “statement of career objectives” and at least 3 of the categories listed below (these may be in a bulleted list format).

A career portfolio is a great asset to help guide your future success. Your portfolio will be shaped by the experiences education and training you have had to this point in your life. As part of this course you’ll be creating several pieces of a career portfolio and learning about the other types of information that are often included. 

As a student in this course you likely fit into two categories. One is as recent high school graduate or enrolled college/university student and the other as a student entering the workplace or embarking on a new career. For this assignment you’ll be creating your “statement of career objectives” which are often included in professional resumes and help guide choices you’ll make regarding your education and employment. In addition you’ll need to start creating a list of the supporting materials that help to illustrate your skills and experience.
