Description
Poster session will include survey results a transition to employment survey from students registered with DS at two mid-sized colleges. Similarities and differences between the two groups will be examined. Ideas for further engagement with students for career preparation will be discussed.
Ideal for: - DS providers who enjoy learning about and/or working with students on their transition from college to employment. - Students who attend the conference and are preparing for their next adventure.
Goals of the session:
- A lot of DS professionals are rightly focused on the transition from high school to college. I believe this is the case because we will be working with these students for several years. We want to do our best at ensuring students are college ready.
- I think DS professionals are less focused on the transition from college to employment, but this is the ultimate goal for any college student - successful employment. Our Career Center is the primary resource for referring students as they start to prepare for life after college.
This poster session will also demonstrate how a DS office is collaborating with Career Services.
