Description:

Do students seek your advice about career related topics? Would you like to be more familiar with career related resources? The Career Everywhere concept recognizes that career conversations can happen anywhere. Whether with peers, faculty, staff, alumni, employers, supervisors or beyond, students seek advice about their career aspirations and plans from a variety of individuals.

Become a Career Champion for Virginia Tech students! Learn about Career and Professional Development’s services, career resources, and strategies for career conversations. This program will consist of asynchronous learning, hands-on reflection, and content application in live Zoom sessions.

The core training is 12 hours of work throughout the semester. (~2 hours of asynchronous learning before each 1.5 hour live session). Completion of all asynchronous content and participation in all live sessions is required for successful completion of the program. Upon completion of the Core Training, Career Champions are invited to participate in electives to continue building their knowledge and skills.

The asynchronous component of the program consists of modules featuring videos, audio clips, interactive images and activities, and written text. The synchronous component of the program is hosted over Zoom and includes small and large group discussion and activities to apply asynchronous content.
