What is The Oxford Program?

The Oxford Program is a 7-week, expert-led, career transition workshop and the only one of its kind.  As a career guidance intervention, we deliver it using the most advanced counseling tools available. Weekly group telecoaching calls augment the online interactions.

You will receive all the comprehensive, specific career advice you need in our 24/7 discussion forum and our weekly group telecoaching calls. Imagine having a dozen counselors who get to know your situation and recommend options for you.  Imagine being surrounded by other adults who are working together to help each other find their dream career.

You can be as open or as anonymous as you'd like.

WHAT TO EXPECT

We utilize a special process we call the Oxford Method (read the sequence of events). It's sole purpose is to help you find a job/career that fits your natural abilities, personality, interests, skills, values, AND financial goals. With my experience as a former Wall Street executive and Oxford University rowing coach, I have followed my calling and built a program for finding your “natural vocation”…what you were meant to do.

• You'll have your natural talents scientifically tested so that you can see how to unleash your excellence and see the type of work you're hard-wired for.

• You'll develop a newfound awareness of your passions, an optimistic sense of purpose, and a profound understanding of what you must do with your life. Don't know what you really want to do in the first place? No problem! In the Oxford Program we'll figure it all out.
• You'll design your ideal career and where you best fit (i.e., be most happy AND successful) in the working world. Having obtained a clear picture of the real you and a specific description of your natural vocation, we can begin the critical process of designing your ideal career and identifying the career/job/business options that best match you, your situation, and your financial needs. 
• You'll discover the best options that are available to you and pay you what you need. You'll explore options across 4 scenarios, including career upgrade, leveraging your education and experience, completely new career, and self-employment options.
• You'll realize which option fits you and your situation best. Leveraging our unique Career Decision Technology, we'll be able to see which 1 or 2  options best suit your talents, passions, needs, goals, and financial requirements.
• You'll have planning assistance, support, and inspiration to make it happen! You're not just left with a vision. You'll have step-by-step knowledge and a practical plan founded in realistic expectations. 

You’ll walk away from our program with…

	Your Personal Career Vision: Your statement will describe the what's, who's, where's, and how's of what you should be doing in your work.
	Personal Strengths Profile: Your Personal Strengths Profile will articulate your newly discovered strengths and preferences.
	Highlands Ability Battery Profile and Report: A 33-page report explaining your natural talents and results in detail.
	Oxford CareerFitNow Report: This multi-page report will describe your true vocational nature, role-in-life, occupation matches based on the O*NET database, as well as best-in-your-industry matches, cool careers matches, franchises matches, and more.
	1-3 best career options. Your Career Comparison results will make it easier to identify your best options from those that are a waste of time.
	Vision Action Plan. A vision without a plan is not as valuable. Therefore, we will build a tangible action plan with short- and intermediate-term goals to comfortably achieve your vision.

Here are some bonus features you will find invaluable:

8 weekly one-hour teleclass sessions.  The calls are conducted through a telephone bridge line which you can access from anywhere in the world. You’ll receive the dial-in number upon acceptance to the program, and you’ll be responsible for any applicable long-distance charges. 

• You’ll join 10-12 other participants in your group, a size that encourages interaction and allows personal attention.  During the calls, you’ll get ideas, resources and support. And we record the calls so if you can't make it one week, you can still listen to the recording at your leisure!

The Oxford Program Community. Imagine being surrounded by other clients who are working together to help each other find their dream career! Imagine having a dozen counselors who get to know your situation and recommend options for you.

Career Discovery Vault. Not only do you need to know what careers are available, you need to know what careers are really like. You'll have complete data on careers covering over 90% of today's jobs. You will discover great, new careers like Professional Organizer, Technology Evangelist, Adventure Therapist, Forensic Animator, and many more.

Oxford Program Career Bulletin. We'll send you a weekly e-mail containing news of the latest in-demand careers that are ideal for adult career changers.

Exclusive Tips and Strategies. These tips and strategies about making career change easy are not available anywhere else because they come from people who have successfully gone through the career change process. 

Job Search Assistance. Once your dream job is identified, you'll receive advice on how to make it happen. Our resident job search guru, Joyce Fortier, will review your resume and answer your questions about job search, branding, interviewing, and salary negotiation.

Diagnostic Reports. Your Natural Vocation Report is the coach's written report pinpointing perfect roles, work environment, and careers. Your Entrepreneur Profile Report will specify the types of small businesses that best fit your nature so as to dramatically increase the chances of success.

Questions

Am I eligible?

Yes, so long as you are interested in identifying a Personal Vision and your specific career path and goals. It is not for people simply looking for job hunting help.

There are lots of sources of career help. Why should I choose this?

Let’s face it. There are more than enough messages and information on the Internet and in books. In fact, too much! Yet, what you don’t find is a complete, systematic approach that includes every resource necessary and is 100% focused on tangible results.

Most coaches or seminars or authors talk about following your dreams, even if you can’t come up with any dreams. You complete some exercises, maybe take a test or two, and have a bunch of information that you can’t integrate into an insight – which, of course, leads to more confusion than ever before.

What would you prefer? Some “take this test and discover your dream job” scheme that is bound for failure? Or a proven, step-by-step methodology that is honest, scientific, practical and inspiring?

Is there a Guarantee?

The Oxford Program methodology is so proven, the steps so clearly defined, and the outcome so certain, that the program is backed by an unconditional money back guarantee. If, for any reason you are in any way dissatisfied with the Oxford Program within the first 30 days, simply request a refund and your fee will be completely, immediately, and cheerfully refunded.
