Career Development

The Career Development office provides information on self-assessment, career exploration, planning, and job search assistance. The office provides a setting where students can choose a career path based upon their interests, aptitudes, skills, values, and job-market data.

Workshops are held each semester on topics such as career decision-making, resume writing, job search strategies, and interviewing skills. The Career Development office also sponsors two major programs each year: Career Awareness Day in the fall and a Job Fair in the spring.

Career and Transfer Resource Center

The Career and Transfer Resource Center contains books, periodicals, magazines, college catalogs, and other printed material. BRIDGES, a computerized career guidance system, provides assessment of student interest and aptitudes and a listing of occupations for which they may be best suited. Internet access is also available. Employment opportunities are posted and include job openings with local and regional employers. These postings contain full-and part-time jobs, internships, and seasonal employment.

Students interested in transferring should consult with the Transfer Counselor. Students can also access BRIDGES to do a college search, which provides information about colleges that match their academic intentions.
