The Career and Development Institute is a nonprofit organization focusing on career and personal development projects, starting with elementary school students at the end of their studies (8th and 9th grades) but focused mainly on the high school students over the whole Czech Republic. Currently, we have a team of 5 volunteers plus a crew established from students.
We are a new organization applying for grants and establishing partnerships.
Our ambition is for early age students to make their own career choices – consciously and based on their interests and talents and to encourage them to aim high and reach long in their career growth, through positive reinforcement, critical thinking, and professional support. In this way, we also help to ensure that more young adults contribute to the economic, civic, and social vitality of the Czech Republic.
Our main project is Kariérko.cz. An online learning platform designed primarily for students. The platform contains descriptions of different professions, motivational videos, podcasts, articles from experts, and students. All of it is completed by information about current career and self-development opportunities (development projects, scholarship programs, excursions and internships, study abroad, etc.) shred at the social media. We are dedicated to providing them opportunities to participate in quality educational events and meet professionals in the field from whom they can learn.
We are cooperating in NGO´s and companies in our country. We offer them partnerships, publishing their content and events on our websites and social media. Our goal is to cooperate not compete as we think there are enough and high-quality programs for the students, we want to help to spread the knowledge about them.
We believe that the communities and networks are helping us and everyone participating to learn from each other, it is opening our eyes, showing us different approach and ways.
