Librarians & Patrons | How to use My Colorado Journey at your library

For many years, libraries have stepped up to be more than just places for books. The Colorado Workforce Development Council (CWDC) and My Colorado Journey are teaming up with libraries and their visitors to introduce My Colorado Journey, a free and easy-to-use online tool that can help you plan your future career.

Libraries are community hubs where everyone is welcome. In that same spirit, My Colorado Journey is an online tool that can make a big difference for people of all ages, skills, and backgrounds. On the My Colorado Journey platform, you will find relevant and timely information for people at all stages of career planning, including adults switching careers, high school students choosing their next adventure, and military veterans transitioning into civilian life.
