Career Interests Workshop: Where Passion Meets Purpose


You come to college with the intent of acquiring the knowledge and skills necessary to build a career that is meaningful to you, that matches your aptitudes, interests, and skills. Perhaps you don't know exactly what that career is yet. Perhaps you know exactly what you want to do but need help with the steps to achieve that goal. We have the tools to help. Our career planning model works no matter where you are in the career planning process.
