Course Description

In this one-credit active-learning seminar, FAHSS students who are currently engaged in or have recently completed non-credit-bearing career-connected experiences will reflect on their learning and demonstrate their career readiness to a target audience. Experiences included in the portfolio might be internships; high-commitment extracurricular activities, volunteering, or research projects; or other activities related to a student's professional goals. Students will create career-focused e-portfolios with a customized résumé, key artifacts, reflection, and more. Feedback from alumni mentors on final portfolios is available. Participating in this CCE course will bolster students' ability to advocate for themselves and articulate their value during the job search process. The resulting portfolio that students develop will set them apart form other candidates. This 50-minute, S/KU seminar meets once a week.
