Designing Career Services for the Future

Eighty-five percent of freshmen say their top priority is to get a good job after graduation, yet 72 percent of recent grads struggle to find entry-level work. How can colleges rethink their career-services offerings to help bridge the college-to-career gap?
Join The Chronicle and the University Innovation Alliance to explore how students, college leaders, and employers view the gap and what needs to be done to close it. During this virtual forum, “Designing Career Services for the Future,” a panel will discuss questions like:
- How should career services evolve to better equip students for the real world?
- What skills and qualifications are employers seeking now?
- How are innovative career services helping students find success?
Hosts:
- Bridget Burns, chief executive officer, University Innovation Alliance
- Ian Wilhelm, assistant managing editor, The Chronicle of Higher Education
Panelists:
- Brenna Gomez, director of career integration, Oregon State University
- Amir Badr, chief executive, Upkey
With Support From UIA/Ascendium.
