What is Life Design?

Life Design is an innovative approach to career readiness and professional development that fosters coherence in life and meaningful satisfaction at work. Our mission is to equip learners (that is, anyone with the capacity to learn) with all the tools and mindsets necessary to design a fulfilling life in which work aligns with one’s values, identities, and aspirations.

The Career and Life Design (CLD) Office at School of Education is here to help you get curious about what drives you, imagine possibilities for your career, experience more of the resources around you, and craft your story for the world to hear.
