Get to know yourself

Workshops for Law students only!
MCT 1 - 2025

 

 

The Master Career Track (MCT) is a programme for master’s students designed to inspire and empower you to kickstart your career after graduation. After completion, you will have all the tools to start a career that suits you.

The Master Career Track consists of three interactive lectures:

• Get to know yourself
• Explore the labour market
• Enter the labour market

In addition, you can use the workbook to complete the homework assignments that will help you tailoring the programme to your personal development and recognising the consistency of the programme. After completing the three lectures, you are eligible for an Edubage, a digital certificate to acknowledge your efforts in your professional development.

 

Lecture 1: Get to know yourself

What shapes my personality? 
What do I enjoy doing? 
What are my needs? 
What brings me fulfilment?
 
Within this lecture, you will first identify everything that defines you: your qualities, interests, experiences, values, passions, and hobbies. Also, you will brainstorm about your ‘dream job’, including your values, needs and wishes for the future - and although that might feel a bit uncomfortable, or even naive in the first place, you will learn the benefits of this exercise. Subsequently, you have the tools to start practicing how to talk to others about these qualities, interests, needs and ambitions as a first step towards the labour market. The lecture will be followed up by two homework assignments to put the theory into practice. Also, you can join the additional deep-dive workshop “Discover your competencies” if you want to explore the topic further.
