This revised edition of the Career Handbook is the counselling component of the 2001 National Occupational Classification (NOC) system. It provides 923 occupational profiles for counselling based on NOC 2001 occupations and maintains the original descriptor scales, factors and presentation format. It includes information on aptitudes, interests, data/people/things interactions, physical activities, environmental conditions, education/training indicators, career progression and work settings. This package includes the Career Handbook Volumes 1 and 2 and a bilingual CD-ROM.

The CD contains the English and French versions of the Career Handbook - Second Edition. The information on the CD is stored in Adobe Acrobat version 4.0 format and is fully printable and searchable.

The National Occupational Classification (NOC 2006) contains the classification structure and descriptions of 520 occupational unit groups that constitute the Canadian labour market. A poster-size NOC matrix (which graphically illustrates the entire classification), an index of over 30,000 occupational titles and a CD-ROM are also included in the package.

The National Occupational Classification and Career Handbook Bookmarks are great promotional materials.
