As students near the completion of their program of study, they meet individually with a career services advisor, a specialist in their field of study, to review career goals, job search strategies, interview techniques, and resume development. In addition to the one-on-one counseling provided by career services advisors, the college's career development courses, which are required of every student, provide extensive career preparation training (see specific program of study for course listing and exemption information). The Career Services department coordinates portfolio shows, externships, as well as, career days for all programs.
The staff of the Career Services department increases employer awareness of our students and graduates' capabilities through membership in professional organizations, attendance at trade shows and on-site visits to businesses. Most importantly, the staff develops and cultivates relationships with employers allowing them to stay on top of industry trends. Additionally, Career Services invites employers to present to student groups through Career Days, sponsors various professional organizations, hosts job fairs, and schedules on-site interviews.
