Résumé

Des approches narratives dans l’orientation professionnelle ont été développées pour répondre à la complexité croissante, l’insécurité et l’individualisation des parcours de carrière. Des approches pratiques et créatives sont nécessaires pour aider les étudiants et les professionnels de l’orientation à construire des récits qui donnent un sens et une direction. Les auteurs plaident pour une écriture professionnelle afin de promouvoir l’apprentissage et de distinguer
trois types d’écriture : créative, expressive et réfléchie. La nécessité de développer une identité professionnelle (c-à-d narrative) sera discutée et un modèle d’écriture pour la transformation sera présenté avec des exercices qui peuvent être utilisés et des exemples tirés de la pratique.
