They have many of the same questions and needs as traditional students, including sometimes not having everything all figured out ( /career-development-services/ for career service assistance).CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, Feb. Some employers also specifically request encore career students as interns ( /interns) because they appreciate their work ethic, career drive, and life experience.Ĭollege campuses today boast that 75 percent of their students are “non-traditional.” Those over 50 are just one segment of the larger non-traditional student population. Programs providing course credit for learning acquired outside of the classroom have also expanded at a rapid rate (see /pla for more information) to ease the transition of going back to school. An initiative called Plus 50 has been making its way through colleges and universities across the country as a way to make “going back to school” more streamlined and comfortable for the over-50 set. Interestingly, encore career adults are also a hot commodity for educational institutions. Healthcare, human resources, green energy, and financial planning are other areas which seem to attract encore career workers.

Sounds like the sort of advice offered to a freshman who might be starting his or her first term in college, but actually this advice has been offered to those adults who are sometimes called “second chapter,” “re-careering,” or “encore career” adults. ![]() “Don’t put pressure on yourself to figure it all out right away.” ![]()
