¶¶Òõ̽̽

We have developed a library of addressing common career questions. These modules can be seamlessly plugged into any Blackboard course. Topics cover everything from reflecting on values/interests to negotiating a salary.

These are designed to equip students with career skills for where they are in their career journey.

This badge provides the foundational skills, knowledge and tools to set students up for the next steps on their career path. We created it with first-year students in mind, but it is appropriate for anyone beginning career preparation.

This badge is designed to help students start building their networks and gain valuable resume-building experience. We designed it with 2nd/3rd year students in mind, but anyone is welcome to take it.

Career Launcher (coming in 2025)

This badge is designed to help students articulate the skills and experiences they've gained and decide what job opportunities are the best fit for them. 

By taking these annual Buzzfeed-style quizzes, students get a personalized update of where they are in terms of career readiness and what they should do next.

Discover Potential Career Paths

Demystify Networking

Find Guest Speakers
Tap into the alum network to find speakers for your class or a panel discussion – or better yet, ask your students to make a list of potential speakers. Who can relate to your current students better than alums?

Promote events
Announce upcoming departmental events and/or raise awareness of additional opportunities on and off campus.
