Guided tour: How to navigate this course

Each course module is self-contained, you can choose to complete modules one at a time and in any order. The topic within each module is interconnected: modules deepen the knowledge you gain in another module, and as you apply the learning. 

Watch for this icon for connections between related modules.

Each module begins with a Start here section, which is a self-directed activity with questions to help you decide if the module is timely for you. There are action-oriented activities, resources, references, and a Summary section.

Throughout the course there are downloadable worksheets and information sheets that you can print out or fill in digitally. These sheets will develop into your career management workbook. Using the worksheet templates is optional, but we strongly recommend that you find some way to document your notes, such as Word, Google Docs, etc.

An aspect of career management is experiencing many emotions, especially feeling overwhelmed, lost, or fearful. This is completely natural and expected. It is important to acknowledge your feelings and if you need some support, reach out to a Career Advisor. As an RRU student, you may also wish to access additional Student Health & Wellness services.

Guided Tour

You can watch the following video for a quick tour of the course site, OR scroll down to read a text guide with screenshots.

This course is broken into four sections, and each section is broken into individual topics (called modules).

In the top left of your screen, is the hamburger menu button that opens and closes the navigation panel. The navigation panel shows all of the units in the course. You can approach these in any order you wish, or stop and come back when you are read. 

Each unit has more than one module, and each module contains an introduction, one or more activities, and a summary. Make sure to read through all of the introductory text before jumping into the activities. You can complete each module individually, but may find it beneficial to also investigate the other modules in the same unit. Check the 'Start Here' document in each module to see if it will be helpful for you.

Most of the activities have multiple pages. When you open one of these activity 'books' (indicated by the orange 'book' icon), you will be presented with a table of contents on the right-hand side of your screen. Use it to navigate through the activity. Many activities also have a downloadable worksheet. Watch for the PDF icon, and click to download these documents so that you can fill them in.
