PET OF THE WEEK

Jack Animal ID: 87936 Name: Jack Age: 6 years Sex: Male Species: Dog Breed: American Bulldog Color: White

Included in the adoption fee:

- Spay/Neuter surgery (done before being placed up for adoption) - Microchipping - First set of vaccines - Complimentary post-adoption vet exam - And so much more!

Hey I’m Jack!

I’m a happy, handsome fella with a face to melt hearts. I get SO pumped to see my human friends, I wriggle my whole body in happy greeting. Sometimes, my joy gets the better of me and I jump up; I’d love to take a class like ‘manic manners’ here at the shelter to work on my doggy etiquette. It would also be a great way to bond with me, and help me burn energy.

I am an active boy, so a home where I can get plenty of exercise would be appreciated — no lazy bones here! I am a little too fond of my feline friends and can’t resist a good chase, so no small animals would be best for me. I really am just a big cuddlebug, and can’t wait to share all my love with my forever family.

MY JOB FINDER ALBERTA JOB OPPORTUNITIES 7

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: My son is graduating from high school this year, but he still doesn’t know what he wants to study afterward. How can I encourage him to find a path and follow it? Signed, Worried ©iStockphoto/asiseeit

Dear Worried: The huge variety of career options combined with an unfamiliarity with the workplace and the weight of choosing the right career can be overwhelming for some.

Do you have a work-related question?

Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.

Fortunately, there are a number of resources available to help young Albertans decide what careers interest them and how to pursue success in the workplace.

Start your son’s journey off right with these six steps.

Step 1—Self-discovery is the foundation of solid career planning. Getting to know yourself can be tricky, though. The Alberta Learning Information Service (ALIS) web site http://alis.alberta.ca offers a free online, self-directed career-planning tool called CAREERinsite that he may find helpful. He may also prefer to use the This Is Your Life workbook, which is available in the Publications section of the ALIS web site.

Step 2—Encourage him to explore careers that fit his list of wants and interests. This may be just the thing to get him excited about his post-secondary education. The OCCinfo section of the ALIS web site houses a wealth of information on career options including detailed profiles of more than 500 occupations, including typical wages, duties, work environments, and educational requirements.

Step 3—Get him to narrow down his choices. Suggest that he interview people who work in the careers that interest him. Informational interviews will give him a real-world view of the job plus they might open up other exciting opportunities. Job-shadowing, volunteering and part-time jobs are fantastic ways for students to pick up valuable work experience and try out careers before they spend years in post-secondary. He should also factor in what the future demand is likely to be for his target career by checking out Alberta’s Occupational Supply and Demand Outlook at http://work.alberta.ca/lmi.

Step 4—Help him choose a program and then a school. The EdInfo section of the ALIS website http://alis.alberta.ca/edinfo is a searchable database of nearly 2,800 different education programs available in Alberta.

Step 5—Apply. The ApplyAlberta website has made it easier for students to apply to one or more post-secondary institutions, authorize transcript transfers, and avoid having to fill out the same information over and over. Check out the ApplyAlberta web site at https://www.applyalberta.ca.

Step 6—Visit www.alis.alberta.ca/payingforschool to find out about the costs of post-secondary education and how to pay for it. You can learn more about scholarships, bursaries and student loans, and apply for loans, on the Student Aid Alberta website www.studentaid.alberta.ca.

Finally, if you would like any more tips to help you work with your son, check out the Career Coaching Your Teens: A Guide for Parents publication on ALIS. Good luck to you both.
