Bringing Career to Curriculum: Outcomes from our Career Readiness Faculty Fellows Initiative
Includes a Live Web Event on 04/10/2025 at 2:30 PM (EDT)
Career readiness is often viewed as a luxury for students with time and space outside the classroom. To address this disparity, the University of Northern Colorado's Center for Career Readiness partnered with staff and faculty across campus to launch the Career Readiness Faculty Fellows program. The presenters will share outcomes from the first year of implementation, challenges, lessons learned, and tips on embedding NACE career readiness competencies into coursework at your institution.
Learning Outcomes
1. Identify at least one lesson learned they can use for their own career-to-curriculum implementation plan
2. Interpret the benefit of cross-campus collaboration for embedding careers into the curriculum at their institution
3. Describe at least one reason to embed career readiness competencies into coursework at their institution
