Brief descriptions below. For detailed information about the workshop offerings and professional development credit, see NDCRN Mission, Goals and Workshop Offerings.
| RUReady.ND.gov Basics | This workshop is an overview of the career and academic tools available through the North Dakota Career Resource Network (NDCRN). |
| Career Planning Resources: A New Perspective |
RUReady has been updated with a new look and several new features will be explored during this workshop. Time will also be spent reviewing the work-based learning expectation in the North Dakota Perkins V plan which will go into effect for the 2020-21 school year. |
| Regional Career Professional In-Service | A counselor in-service will be held for career professionals to provide timely information with upcoming statewide changes and updates. |
| Establishing Balance in a School Counseling Program | On site, at your school (limited availability). School counseling programs focus on the Academic, Career and Personal/Social domains. Developing a Program of Work that is available to all students and maintains a balance between the three domains is a challenge. A review of state counseling requirements, available resources and tools will be included. Register to express your interest and the CRN office will contact you. |
