The purpose of CDQ is to foster career development through the design and use of career interventions and publish articles on career counseling, individual and organizational career development, work and leisure, career education, career coaching, and career management
NCDA MISSION STATEMENT
The National Career Development Association (NCDA) is a division of the American Counseling Association (ACA). The mission of NCDA is to promote the career development of all people over the life span. To achieve this mission, NCDA provides service to the public and professionals involved with or interested in career development, including professional development activities, publications, research, public information, professional standards, advocacy, and recognition for achievement and service.
NCDA HISTORY AND PURPOSE
In 1913, the National Vocational Guidance Association was founded. In 1985 it became the National Career Development Association (NCDA). Its aim is to promote career development throughout the life span. NCDA provides a voice for thousands of members who deliver career services to diverse groups in many settings.
NCDA speaks for professionalism and standards and is the recognized leader in developing standards for both career counseling and the evaluation of career information materials. NCDA works with licensing and credentialing bodies to support the recognition of career counselors and career development facilitators. NCDA sets ethical standards for the field including guidelines for the provision of career services on the Internet.
NCDA is heard in Washington DC. In cooperation with the American Counseling Association, NCDA represents the interests of our members in Congress. The national media frequently consults with NCDA on career-related issues. NCDA promotes global sharing of workforce policy and practices and supports and reports on research in the growing field of career development.
On April 1, 1999, NCDA launched its website, www.ncda.org. Applauded as an effective resource for its current 4200 members, it demonstrates that the organization is successfully moving into the 21st century.
Instructions to Authors
Author Info/Submission Guidelines
The Career Development Quarterly (CDQ) invites articles regarding career counseling, individual and organizational career development, work and leisure, career education, career coaching, and career management. Methodologies can include but are not limited to literature reviews that make research accessible to practitioners, case studies, history and public policy analyses, qualitative research, and quantitative research that is of specific relevance to the practice of career development. Each article should include implications for practice because CDQ is concerned with fostering career development through the design and use of career interventions.
Regular manuscripts must be double-spaced throughout (including references) and must not exceed 26,700 characters (including spaces), 3,750 words, or 15 pages. Occasionally, a longer manuscript may be considered. Provide, but do not count, a cover page with each author's name, position, and place of employment, and a clear abstract of essential information of up to 100 words. Other than the title page, authors should not place their names or other identifying information on the manuscript itself because all manuscripts are peer-reviewed with a blind reviewing system. Manuscripts should be submitted electronically via e-mail as an attachment to CDQ@ncda.org. Manuscripts will be acknowledged by e-mail when they are received.
Reports of demonstrably effective career counseling methods or programs are featured in the section "Effective Techniques." Articles in this section describe theoretically based techniques that advance career development for people of all ages. Qualitative or quantitative data providing evidence of the techniques' effectiveness will be included in these articles. Manuscripts submitted to the "Effective Techniques" section should be double-spaced throughout (including references) and should not exceed 21,360 characters (including spaces), 3,000 words, or 12 pages. Such articles should contain (a) a brief review of the literature related to the theoretically based intervention, (b) a clear description of the intervention, (c) a brief report of data supporting the techniques' effectiveness, and (d) a summary.
"Brief Reports" manuscripts should be double-spaced throughout (including references) and should not exceed 8,900 characters (including spaces), 1,250 words, or 5 pages (excluding title page, an abstract of no more than 80 words, references, and no more than one table or figure) and should contain a clear and concise summary of the study (including rationale, objectives, design, instruments, sample, analyses, results, and implications for research and practice).
The "Global Visions" section contains manuscripts addressing issues of career counseling and development in countries outside of the United States. These manuscripts must be double-spaced throughout (including references) and must not exceed 26,700 characters (including spaces), 3,750 words, or 15 pages.
Manuscripts must be prepared carefully, such that ideas flow coherently and writing is clear and concise. Avoid jargon, acronyms, and sexist terminology. Headings and subheadings should be used to structure the content. Article titles and headings in the articles should be as short as possible. Use tables sparingly, include only essential data, and combine tables wherever possible. Authors should submit no more than three tables or two figures with each manuscript. The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th edition) serves as the style manual for CDQ. Authors are encouraged to reduce bias in language against persons on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, racial or ethnic group, disability, or age by referring to the guidelines in the fifth edition of the APA manual. Authors must address the clinical significance of their results using effect size indicators, narrative analyses, or both.
Authors who use lengthy quotations or adapt tables and figures from another source must secure written permission to do so from the copyrighted source. Manuscripts that include copyrighted material will not be accepted for publication in CDQ until the author provides the editor with written permission from the copyright holder.
Submit all manuscripts electronically through e-mail to Dr. Jerry Trusty, Incoming Editor, The Career Development Quarterly at CDQ@ncda.org. If you do not have access to electronic mail services, please send an original and three photocopies of the manuscript to Dr. Jerry Trusty, Editor, The Career Development Quarterly, Department of Counselor Education, Counseling Psychology, and Rehabilitation Services, Pennsylvania State University, 327 CEDAR Building, University Park, PA 16802-3110, USA, 1.814.863.7536. Be sure to include your e-mail address on the title page of the manuscript. Never submit material that is under consideration by another journal or that has been previously published. About 12 weeks will elapse between acknowledgment of the manuscript's receipt and notification of its disposition. After the final acceptance of an article, authors should expect minor editing for style consistency. Authors of manuscripts accepted for publication will be asked to provide the final article electronically via e-mail, specifying word processing software that was used to prepare the manuscript (MS Word is preferred). After an article's publication, all authors of articles and senior contributors to sections will receive a complimentary copy of CDQ.
