We would like to acknowledge the generous support we received from Georgia State
University for their original idea of aBlue circle with the green Canadian Association of Career Educators and Employers (CACEE) logo in the middle, and a yellow banner at the bottom that says "Award Recipient" Major Map tool, and the information they shared in the development process.
