The correct answer is: National Career Development Association (NCDA)

The National Career Development Association (NCDA) is specifically dedicated to promoting the career development of individuals throughout their lifespan. This organization focuses on providing resources, advocacy, and support for career counselors and professionals who work with clients on various aspects of career development, including planning, exploration, and management of career paths. The NCDA emphasizes the importance of ongoing career development as a lifelong process, integrating various theories and practices that can assist individuals in navigating their careers at different life stages. Through workshops, publications, and networking opportunities, the NCDA helps to advance the field of career counseling and development, ensuring that professionals are well-equipped to support diverse populations in achieving their career goals. While the other choices represent organizations with significant roles in career and guidance aspects, their missions may not specifically emphasize the lifelong career development focus that the NCDA embodies.
