Career Development at UC Berkeley

"UC Berkeley is a wonderful place for staff and faculty to grow and nurture their careers. You are part of a first-class institution, you are critical to the achievement of our mission, and your continuous growth and learning is just as important as the learning in which our students engage.
I encourage you to explore this website and all the resources available to you on our campus to develop yourself and to have a satisfying, meaningful career here at UC Berkeley!"

--  Chancellor Birgeneau

Career development is a self-initiated process with support and resources provided by managers and the organization.  At Cal, we use a 5-part model of career development to help you organize your career development planning activities.  We encourage you to explore all the information, resources, and tools provided in each area of our model.  To begin your exploration, we encourage you to take the career development competencies assessment  (PDF). This assessment will direct you to the part(s) of the model that are most applicable to you at this time.
