Lori and Kim showcased 91制片厂鈥檚 commitment to CaPS as an institutional priority by sharing the history of the transition to its current state: a hybrid model consisting of decentralized career professionals in each of the colleges and a centralized operations听team in Hood House. 听In doing so, innovative programming and initiatives have been created including industry-specific career events, deeper partnerships with faculty and alumni, and the ability to deliver targeted resources to students.听 As a result, CaPS has increased its student reach by 60%, employer engagement by 77%, and 91制片厂 is able to proudly boast that 95% of the graduating class of 2018 are employed or advancing their education.
Having the ability to present to听peers on a national stage was an honor for Lori and Kim. The presentation was well received by all in attendance, and it left many career centers around the country seeking to connect with the 91制片厂 and Career and Professional Success听to replicate initiatives at their own institutions!听
Lori and Kim would like to thank 91制片厂 for the opportunity to attend and present at this national conference. Professional development opportunities like this recharge and refresh the听team to serve students and kick off the new year!听
