Intrinsic values are related to the work itself and what it contributes to society. Extrinsic values include external features, such as physical setting and earning potential. Value inventories will ask questions like the following:. These self assessment tools ask individuals to answer a series of questions regarding their surprise interests. Strong, a psychologist, pioneered their development.
He found, through data he gathered about people's likes and dislikes of a variety of activities, objects, and types of persons, that people in the same career and satisfied in that career had similar interests.
John Holland and others provided a system of matching interests with one or more of six types: realistic, investigative, artistic, social, enterprising and conventional. He then matched these types with occupations. When you take an interest inventory, the results are compared with this study to see where you fit in—are your interests similar to those of a police officer or to those of an accountant, for example?
Many personality inventories used in career planning are based on Psychiatrist Carl Jung's personality theory. He believed four pairs of opposite preferences—the way individuals choose to do things— make up people's personalities. They are extroversion and introversion how one energizes , sensing and intuition how one perceives information , thinking or feeling how one makes decisions , and judging and perceiving how one lives his or her life.
One preference from each pair makes up an individual's personality type. They believe individuals with a particular personality type are better suited to specific occupations. An example would be that an introvert would not do well in a career that requires him or her to be around other people all the time.
When deciding what field to enter, you need to discover your aptitudes. An aptitude is a natural or acquired ability. In addition to looking at what you are good at doing, also consider what you enjoy. It is possible to be quite adept at a particular skill, yet despise every second spent using it. Generally speaking, though, people usually enjoy what they are good at.
While you're assessing your skills, think about the time you are willing to spend to acquire more advanced or new skills. A question to ask yourself is this—if a career holds all the qualities I find appealing but it takes X years to prepare for it, would I be willing and able to make this time commitment? While going through the self-assessment process, take into account other factors that will influence your career choice. Program indicators should be a mix of those that measure process, or what is being done in the program, and those that measure outcomes.
Process indicators track the progress of the program. Outcome indicators track how successful program activities have been at achieving program objectives. More information about creating indicators can be found in the How to Develop Indicators guide. After creating monitoring indicators, it is time to decide on methods for gathering data and how often various data will be recorded to track indicators.
This should be a conversation between program staff, stakeholders, and donors. These methods will have important implications for what data collection methods will be used and how the results will be reported. The source of monitoring data depends largely on what each indicator is trying to measure. The program will likely need multiple data sources to answer all of the programming questions.
Below is a table that represents some examples of what data can be collected and how. Once it is determined how data will be collected, it is also necessary to decide how often it will be collected. This will be affected by donor requirements, available resources, and the timeline of the intervention. Other types of data depend on outside sources, such as clinic and DHS data. This table can be printed out and all staff working on the program can refer to it so that everyone knows what data is needed and when.
It is important to decide from the early planning stages who is responsible for collecting the data for each indicator. Everyone will need to work together to get data collected accurately and in a timely fashion. Data management roles should be decided with input from all team members so everyone is on the same page and knows which indicators they are assigned.
This way when it is time for reporting there are no surprises. Once all of the data have been collected, someone will need to compile and analyze it to fill in a results table for internal review and external reporting. Do research staff need to perform any statistical tests to get the needed answers? If so, what tests are they and what data will be used in them? What software program will be used to analyze data and make reporting tables?
In addition, ask them to discuss one example of a professional development activity they have undertaken recently and how this was beneficial to them.
