Summit Rewatch Discussion Series - Skills, Story, and Strategy: Advising Students Towards Career Readiness in a Changing Economy

TBD
Please consider joining us for a discussion on one of our specific Summit workshops. Our third session will be on the closing keynote, Skills, Story, and Strategy: Advising Students Towards Career Readiness in a Changing Economy. During this session, we will unpack some of what Jenny discussed guided by the following questions: Melissa talks about translation, not completion and how important it is for students to be able to talk about their skills, not necessarily their degree, upon graduation (27:00); how can we use this knowledge when we have conversations with our students about preparing for the job market and interviewing?Melissa talks about the Core Model (41:30), which encourages students to name it, prove it, and tell it; how can you frame this when working with students to support their successful career readiness?What are some strategies students can take in getting involved on campus and in experiential learning experiences that can support them in their career readiness? Consider a full rewatch (available on our website), follow the timestamps provided with the questions, or just join in the conversation!
