�������� has been awarded the title of a Career Development College of Distinction. Already honored for its hands-on approach to education, the institution stands out for its breadth of resources aimed at its students’ success beyond graduation.

Earning a college degree greatly improves one’s ability to secure a job, and yet the process of entering the workforce is often a big challenge in itself. ��������’s Career Development award is a celebration of its commitment to helping students advance in their desired careers.

“�������� is doing important work to help its students thrive after graduation,” said Tyson Schritter, Chief Operating Officer at Colleges of Distinction. “The job market can be intimidating, but this school’s resources and support services give students an advantage in whatever field they pursue.”

�������� has demonstrated excellence in several key areas of career development. The University introduces its career services office to students during new student orientation and their first semester on campus. This early engagement is complemented by collaboration with academic departments to integrate career resources directly into the classroom. The institution emphasizes career and major exploration across all fields of study and provides guidance to help students navigate these resources at different stages of their academic journey.

In addition to integrated career exploration, the University offers a variety of accessible programs and training. Students benefit from 24/7 online access to career services resources, as well as one-on-one counseling appointments for personalized assistance. Services such as self-assessments, résumé and cover letter writing, interview preparation, and networking support are readily available. Workshops and events further enhance students’ job search skills and provide opportunities for direct feedback.

The institution also employs a dedicated, career-centered staff to support its students. Career and personal assessments are offered to help students gain self-awareness and explore their interests. Staff members are specifically tasked with building employer relations and corporate partnerships, while mentorship and internship programs connect students with alumni and industry professionals.

“�������� is bringing career readiness into the curriculum,” continued Schritter. “Such a comprehensive method of career preparation is inspiring, and we can’t wait to see where ��������’s students will take their confidence and expertise.”
