Here at OITE, our continued resolution is to help trainees become skilled in a variety of core competencies. We view these four competencies as vital to your career development.
They include:
1. Career Exploration and Planning
2. Communicating
3. Teaching and Mentoring
4. Leading and Managing
Our goal for the blog this year is to cover a variety of resources and projected outcomes for each of these core competencies.
One of the first we will tackle is career exploration and planning. This often involves four phases: Exploration, Preparation, Action, and Adaptation. You will most likely go through these steps more than once because one’s career development very rarely follows a linear projection. Look next week for a blog on the topic of career exploration and planning, specifically individual development plans.
Hopefully, by covering all four of the core competencies, we will help to establish a thematic framework as you continue to read the blog throughout the year. We will label and categorize each new post accordingly, so that the blog becomes a searchable site for you to easily navigate. In addition, we hope this gives you some inspiration as you set your own new year’s career goals. For a more detailed view of the graphic, please click on the image to enlarge.
