Abstract
The field of career development lacks a generally accepted assessment protocol for women of color. This lack is fueled by the breadth of the definition of the category, women of color. In this article, we limit the category to African American, Asian American, Hispanic or Latina American, and Native American women living in the United States. While acknowledging significant within-group and between-group differences among these women, the authors look at the components of the career development literature related to women and various ethnic and racial groups. The authors review and critique the Ward and Bingham (1993) and the Fouad and Bingham (1995) models and discuss ways to expand these existing models. This discussion is then used to suggest a four-step process to career assessment for women of color.
