Continuing Education Units are Available from Michigan Human Resource Development Inc. for Global Career Development Facilitators
Michigan Human Resources Development Inc., (M-HRDI), is a CCE Approved Continuing Education Provider (ACEPTM) and may offer CCE approved clock hours for events that meet Global Career Development Facilitators (GCDF) continuing education requirements. M-HRDI is solely responsible for all aspects of the program. Global Career Development Facilitators work in government employment agencies, schools, universities, corporate human resources departments, private consultancy firms, and other settings. They help people meet their career goals by providing career facilitation and guidance.
Over the last three years, M-HRDI Trainers have provided Global Career Development Facilitator Training to Michigan Works Agency staff, service providers, for profit, and non-profit workforce development organizations throughout Michigan. Now, M-HRDI is able to offer courses structured to meet the CCE approved method for earning continuing education units, and course content aligns with the twelve GCDF competency areas. These courses are geared toward professionals in the field of career development and will enhance the professional’s role as a career development facilitator. Global Career Development Facilitators (GCDFs) are required to recertify every five years by accruing documentation of 75 contact hours of continuing education activities that meet guidelines established by the CCE and espouse the twelve GCDF competency areas.
In order to be successful in gaining and keeping employment, job seekers today and even more so in the future, must possess a variety of enterprising skills.
“Some unemployed workers know their ability to sell themselves and their skills and will succeed in finding new employment. Others however, due to a shortfall of jobs, rusty or undeveloped job search skills, need help provided by certified career facilitators or advisors.” Says Walt Lodes, Regional Manager for Michigan HRDI.
Career and Workforce Development programs face increased competition and heightened expectations from customers and funding sources. Services delivered by certified individuals and accredited organizations provide the competitive edge necessary and identify strong programs that have high standards. The GCDF is the premier credential recognized by CCE and the National Career Development Association (NCDA).
Michigan HRDI is the only Center for Credentialing and Education accredited High Performance Career Development (HPCD) organization in Michigan. The accreditation recognizes career and workforce development programs meeting high standards and operating with continuous-improvement and customer-focused services. M-HRDI instructors are certified by the Center for Credentialing and Education and recognized and registered on the National Career Development Association (NCDA) Instructor Registry.
Michigan HRDI offers three courses that align the twelve Career Development Competencies to the workforce development efforts in Michigan. Each course is comprised of four of the twelve principal competencies, providing plenty of opportunity to build skills and knowledge in areas that are new, as well as enhance and develop those competencies used every day by career facilitators. Courses can be customized for individual competencies to meet specific needs of agencies and organizations.
