Abstract
This action research project provides a description and analysis of the unique career development needs of rural Alberta students and of a career curriculum program designed to meet these needs. As a teacher/researcher, I developed this new program, called Career Preparation 10, and taught it to five groups of students. The participants in this project were 23 rural grade 10 students who completed course evaluations. The results of a preliminary program evaluation are discussed as well as final project results, which indicated these students did find Career Preparation 10 useful in meeting their career development needs. Detailed evaluation results, a teacher's guide, and recommendations for course implementation are also included.
