Assignment: Advanced Human Services Professional Practitioner Roles and Career Paths

It is never too early to begin thinking about your career path. Whether you are already working in the human services profession and interested in advancing your career or are new to the profession, it is important to spend some time thinking about the types of human services jobs you would like to pursue. Over the past several weeks, you have completed assessments to learn more about yourself. For this Assignment, you use that self-knowledge to determine your capacity to serve in a leadership position in which you will be supervising human services practitioners performing the roles you learned about in this course and performing some of the roles yourself. You will also identify two leadership positions of interest to you and the knowledge areas, skills, and abilities you would need to develop to work in these positions.
