Faculty: Don't Cancel That Class!



If you need to miss or cancel a class, have a last minute emergency or need a guest speaker...please consider inviting a Career Development staff member to your class.

From time to time the Career Center will also have speakers available from outside organizations. These can range from alumni to executives to Speakers Bureau presenters.

Please check our available speakers page for more information on both Career Development speakers and other speakers.
