Abstract:
|
What should I major in? What strategies can I use to choose a major? How can a professional certificate or degree lead to immediate work opportunities? What are the trending positions in my desired career field? While providing academic guidance to promote student success is vital to an Academic Advisors' work, encouraging students to partake in career planning is also vital to the student's decision-making skills, goal-setting skills, and career preparation abilities.
Academic and career advising go hand in hand, especially within the community college system. Whether they are a first-year college student or a transfer student, it is common for students to question their academic path and career objective during an advising meeting. Join us as we share our experiences piecing together advising and career strategies while supporting our student's collegiate journey. |
