Join Dr. Leonor E. Diaz, Early Grade Curriculum and Pedagogy Expert, and Ms. Mary Grace D. Espinosa, Key Stage 1 Guidance Counselor, as they explore why career development can begin as early as kindergarten. This episode looks at how the Career Development for Children (CD4C) initiative helps young learners build self-awareness, discover the diverse world of work, challenge career stereotypes, and develop foundational life skills. The conversation also highlights how playful, age-appropriate, and contextualized career learning can be integrated into everyday classroom experiences without becoming an additional subject for teachers.
