The purpose of this study was to better understand the current perceptions of effectiveness of student-athlete career development programming amongst student-athletes at a NCAA Power 5 Conference member institution. This exploration allowed researchers and practitioners alike to understand and determine the best practices for improving career development programs through an unprecedented exploration into the feelings and perspectives of the student-athletes themselves. Student-athlete career development programs are in place to aid and assist student-athletes in developing the skills necessary for a productive career post-athletic retirement, yet it remains unclear to what extent programming is effective in preparations for post-athletic life. At the center of the National Collegiate Athletics Association's core values exists the premise that student-athletes are being developed holistically, in order to be a better student, a better athlete, and to be prepared for life post-graduation and post-retirement (NCAA, n.d.). Despite the NCAA's, and member conference and institutional missions to prepare student-athletes for success both athletically and academically, studies have shown that student-athletes have fallen behind the general student body in regard to career readiness (Linnemeyer & Brown, 2010; Van Raalte, et al, 2017) and other important academic functions (Adler & Adler, 1985; Burns, Jasinski, Dunn, & Fletcher, 2013; Seemiller, 2016). Using the theory of organizational effectiveness, this study sought to measure through a structural equation model path analysis, the organizational effectiveness of a career development program. Through a sample of one Power 5 Conference member institution, student-athletes were surveyed, and data was collected regarding their perceptions of programmatic effectiveness, satisfaction with their participation, their volume of participation, and their feelings of preparedness to enter the workforce. All student-athletes at the sampled institution were given an opportunity to participate in this study. Results of the proposed model were limited; however, a significant relationship was found in the relationship between satisfaction and perceived effectiveness.This study represents the first of its kind, and though model fit and statistical significance were challenging to obtain, this study may provide the foundation for future research into the matter. Through understanding the relationship between satisfaction and perceived effectiveness, practitioners may consider ways to provide opportunities which are both functional and entertaining to student-athletes. Further research must be conducted to determine whether these activities will yield positive career attitudes and successes, however this study may provide the framework for future research into the topic.
