This study is part of a larger project of Canadian Policy Research Networks (CPRN), Pathways for Youth to the Labour Market. The purposes of this project include: to better understand the paths that young people take from secondary school to the labour market and the outcomes (employment, earnings, job satisfaction) associated with different paths; to identify institutional and policy structures that appear to support or hinder the ability to find successful pathways. The overall goal is to ensure that more young people are able to find pathways that lead to sustained employment with decent pay, good working conditions and career potential. Career-development services (information, programs and resources) can play an important role in facilitating successful pathways. As part of the research for the Pathways project, CPRN asked the Canadian Career Development Foundation (CCDF) to provide a pan-Canadian overview of the scope of career-development services for youth.
