The Redirection Research Project
The Redirection Research Project examines individuals’ experiences with later life work and career development as they shift gears and pursue new types of work. The purpose of this project is to learn more about aging and work experiences. This research initiative will help to develop best practices and create more awareness about this topic in society.
The Redirection Project is a CERIC-funded national research initiative. It consists of: 1) a national survey, 2) the Redirection Story Contest (see below for entry form) and 3) a documentary film. To participate in the survey, please see below.
The Story Contest has concluded. We received wonderful submissions. Thank you to all the entrants. A random draw was conducted and the prizes were distributed. For updates on the film, please follow us on Twitter: @myredirection and @mareorientation.
Redirection Project Updates:
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Redirection Project. We are excited to share the one minute long trailer for the documentary film.
The world premiere of the documentary film was in Montreal, Quebec. The full documentary Redirection: Movers, Shakers and Shifters is now available on YouTube.
Screenings have been held in locations from British Columbia to Nova Scotia and places in between. Requests for feature presentations are welcome.
The CERIC-funded Redirection Project is complete; however, please contact me via my contact page if you want to share your career story for the forthcoming book about redirection.
