Stay on top of careers industry trends and join thought leaders to advance the professionalism and visibility of the industry.


CTL convenes career service providers from universities, community colleges, workforce centers, outplacement companies, corporate talent development arenas, and careers industry businesses to achieve this mission by providing education, opportunities for thought leadership contribution and collaboration, best practices, and thought leadership content.

Organizations that provide career services can join as CTL Associate Organizations and receive CTL Associate benefits (as listed below) for up to 4 individuals. Associate Organizations also receive the following benefits:
 
  • Most notably, 4 individuals receive the Associate rate to attend CTL events, including the annual conference, Career Jam, and the CTL Master-E-Sessions. This benefit can be assigned to any 4 members of the organization for any of these events.
  • Any individual from the Associate Organization can join CTL Associate Quarterly Calls.
  • The CTL Associate Organization will be listed in the Associate Organization Directory.
10 Benefits of Becoming a CTL Associate
1. Prominent and easily searchable listing in the CTL Directory. The CTL Directory is a fully searchable database of leading career experts – a wonderfully valuable tool for job seekers and career professionals alike.

2. Recognition as an “Associate – Career Thought Leaders Consortium” – a distinguished designation that you can use in your email signature, on your website or blog, in your LinkedIn profile, in your marketing campaigns and client communications … wherever and however you’d like to give yourself distinction.

3. Value of, and visibility from, all the job seeker-focused marketing outreach that we do on a regular basis to drive traffic to the CTL website and blog and, now, the CTL Directory.

4. Variety of opportunities for training, public speaking, writing, books, and all kinds of other projects. On a routine basis we get a wide range of requests for a diversity of business opportunities and projects. As these come our way, we will immediately notify CTL Associates so that you can follow up on those of interest to you specifically. This should not be construed as a guarantee that you will capture a particular opportunity, but rather that you will be made aware of the opportunity.

5. Exclusive opportunities to feature your work (e.g., resumes, letters, coaching strategies, job search systems) in print and online book publications through both CTL and other organizations.

6. Free webcasts with CTL Advisory Council Members on a wide range of career/employment/job search/technology topics.

7. 10% discount to the annual CTL Conference, Master-E-Sessions, and Career Jam – each and every year.

8. Discounts on Master Resume Writer and Credentialed Career Manager Certifications and renewals.

9. Invitation to participate in, and contribute to, CTL-sponsored research projects focused on careers, employment, job search, entrepreneurship, and other key topics.

10. Personalized CTL Associate badge to prominently display in your social media, on your website, or wherever your potential customers find you online.

11. Announcement of your CTL Associate status in the next edition of the Career Trends Happy Hour newsletter.
