Quand on interroge des jeunes, même au début de la vingtaine, on sera étonné de se rendre compte qu’une grande majorité d’entre eux ne savent pas encore ce qu’ils ont envie de faire comme carrière. Il y a une sérieuse carence du côté des orienteurs qui souvent se limitent à distribuer des prospectus. Voici pour les indécis un livre capital.
L’ouvrage, plein de « gros bon sens » et de bons conseils, s’adresse aux étudiants et à leurs parents et présente une foule de conseils sur la vie aux études postsecondaires. S’il aborde notamment comment se préparer aux examens, prendre des notes et lire de façon efficace, faire des recherches pour les travaux ainsi que travailler en équipe et résoudre des problèmes, il s’attarde surtout à faire le lien entre les apprentissages et les compétences développées durant les études postsecondaires et le marché du travail. -- Catherine Couturier * Tout ce qu’on doit savoir pour réussir ses études postsecondaires *

(...) teamwork, meeting deadlines, overcoming challenges, writing well and dealing with people are essential in any professional job. These same skills are also vital to becoming a strong student. * yFile: York University's News *
