"Promising Practices: Connection to Career
As students weigh their decisions of when and where to continue their education, they’re paying close attention to opportunities for career development and preparation. Students are looking for career support that is woven into guidance and advising, and offers some measure of security in an uncertain economy. As one student said, “I want to know that I have the security in that school that if I need extra help, or if … it’s certain that this is the career that I want, I’ll be able to graduate and get that career.” Developing partnerships with local employers and industry is a critical strategy institutions use to connect students with career opportunities. As practitioners discussed, these partnerships develop gradually and require an investment of staff time and resources to build and maintain over time — even more so for institutions or systems operating in an area with regional diversity, where different communities and industries have different needs. In addition to building bridges into the community, practitioners also discussed how they bring career planning into the institution by providing career-based training and incorporating career navigation into curricula.
Grow industry partnerships to connect students with employment and professional development opportunities. Partnerships between an institution and local organizations and employers can be a gateway for students to explore careers and develop their professional networks.
Nethubb’s online platform connects students to professional associations, through which they can explore scholarship, mentorship, and career development opportunities. Associations in Texas, where Nethubb is located, include the Texas Association of School Psychologists, American Institute of Graphic Arts DFW, Greater Dallas-Texas Restaurant Association, Texas Society of Association Executives, and many others. Associations will continue to be added from around the country to expand the outreach to help students and young adults discover and achieve their career passion."
