Student Testimonials

What is the most valuable thing about Harrison & Associates East Fast Track FCD training?

"The empathy developed from completing the assignments and putting myself in the shoes of my students/clients/customers." Kristin Sims

"The ability to design a comprehensive career development program for target audience." Xinyuan Xu

"Steps of the Career Planning Process.  This was my Ah!Ha! moment.  Once I realized there were learning objectives, everything else we learned fell into place." David Randall, Norfolk Naval Shipyard

"This training was great and very good value for money. Although I have already been career coaching this course has provided me with a huge amount of additional information that I can use to improve my current coaching practice." - George Strang PhD, Life/Career Coach

"I am new in my role as a career professional, so all of the information, data and processes were useful to me." - Career & Jobs Specialist, Portland Community College

"It helped me to do a deep dive into Career Services and teach me an abundance of information about the profession I would not have otherwise learned. Overall it was challenging, refreshing and need for me to get to the next level of providing my services with a new level of excellence." - Dave Smith, Liberty University

The worksheets and ideas.  I was able to take almost every assignment we did and apply it to our career center.  I already have an activity prepared for the Career Safari assignment.  More than anything, I learned how to improve my helping skills and streamline my processes with clients.  I am very thankful for the excellent instruction from Melyssa.       - Career Development Director & Coordinator, Mount Aloysius College

The breadth of material. I really benefited from the exercises that took me out of the standards resume/cover letter/interview mindset and expanded my thinking regarding the role of assessments, groups, confidentiality, and more.      - Career Specialist, University of Arkansas

In-depth understanding pertaining to all facets of Career Development industry.  Liked the on-line format and flexibility of being able to do assignments when convenient and the flexibility of the instructor.       - Career Coach, Santa Fe Community College

The question is not what, the question is who. Ms. Harrison is a very good instructor. She was very helpful and knowledgeable.

- Paralegal, The Burris Legal Group, PA
