Career and education planning among young black women: Implications for FCS educators
This qualitative study investigated how young Black women experience career and education planning (CEP). Eight women from West Texas completed a career exploration and decision-making learning experiences scale and participated in semi-structured interviews. Findings from the data provided a contextualized understanding of CEP, indicating that career exploration and decision-making learning experiences, work-based learning, and social agents positively influence CEP. These findings provide an awareness of CEP experiences that can inform how family and consumer sciences educators and practitioners support CEP in a way that helps individuals from marginalized communities circumvent career-related disadvantages encountered during the transition from adolescence into adulthood.
