Career Services - building life skills for personal and professional success!

It is estimated that the average American will change career fields 5-7 times during their working life. In order to make well-conceived career choices, students need to know about themselves, their options, and how to achieve their goals. Preparation is crucial: the Career Services staff believe that career planning should begin the first year of college. Beginning this process early enables students to maximize opportunities to build skills and qualifications prior to graduation - and ultimately become more marketable to prospective employers!
