Testimonials

"This is and will remain the definitive certification program in our industry for Job Search Strategies and Coaching. Beverly Harvey and Susan Whitcomb have innovated a much-needed program with a wealth of cutting-edge resources, tools and coaching strategies that equip coaches to meet the needs of their clients in any economy. I highly recommend it as an invaluable program to round out the toolbox of coaches at all levels of experience."

"Thank you for this course. What I have learned from Beverly and Susan in the last three weeks has been beyond useful. I have used the 'Magic Series' as my four-volume career services bible and this course is like putting Job Search Magic on a Blu-ray disc with bonus features!"

     ~ Rhonda Douglas-Charles, Job Search Strategist

"Thanks in large part to the skills I learned in the CJSS training, my client actually found his "dream job" and I couldn't have wished for a more positive outcome. During the classes there were so many resources I was able to immediately use to support my client in his career transition. Thanks to [Beverly] and Susan I was able to effectively help him and that feels wonderful. Thank you both for all you do to help others."

     ~ Deborah Simi Eibner, MA, CCBC, JCTC, Certified Corporate Business Coach, Certified Job and Career Transition Coach

"If I didn't learn any more than I have already, the course would be worth my investment. I've received a wealth of information and resources, PLUS tips and ideas on how to use them to benefit both my clients and my business. Did I already know some of this? Possibly. Will I be much better prepared now that I've learned a lot more? Absolutely. When I first learned about the program at the NRWA conference in San Diego, I thought, "Boy, that sounds like the kind of thing I've been wishing I had." I was right!"

     ~ Georgia Adamson, Master Resume Writer & Credentialed Career Manager

"You have probably heard how wonderful the NRWA conference was. What was different for me this time results from the knowledge I gained during the JSS training. I felt like more of a complete job search professional and, as a result, filtered the workshop information in a different way. This training has definitely helped to widen my horizons. Thank you so much."

"I couldn't let the day end without telling you how impressed I am with the CJSS program. From end to end, from top to bottom, from development to delivery, this has got to be one of the finest programs in our industry.

Beverly [has] a real knack for getting people involved and doing it in ways that makes them feel safe. Nothing reinforces the printed word, or the well-thought out exercises, better than actually "doing" some of these tasks. [She] also has a gift for what I call "community based reinforced learning." In much less pretentious terms, that just means [she's] helping people learn from one another. That pays big dividends. First, it makes learning more comprehensive. Second, it gives [the] course even more depth and currency because our group shares from so many different backgrounds and have such different practices. Third, it's building your brand as a welcoming, supportive course.

I can always spot [Susan's] hand in the products [she introduces]. Somehow, [she manages] to combine exceptional breadth and depth of concepts and options with up-to-the-minute currency. I know that comes from an enormous amount of work... But please believe me, such quality is rare indeed.

Just today, I got a call from a very respected colleague. She was telling me about her experience attending, in residence, an expensive program conducted by well known members of our industry and aimed at very successful practitioners. She volunteered the following comment: 'They told me everything about what I should do, but they never told me how I could do those things!' That will never be said about this program. Many thanks for all the hard work. It's already paying off."

"I'm absolutely thrilled and excited [to receive my CJSS]! Thank you for a great experience with a program full of information and insight. It was worth every penny. I plan to leverage what I learned to be a great, effective Certified Job Search Strategist as I build a practice."
