Elizabeth,
Wow. You have a lot on your plate. Sounds like you are the school director, corporate career services director, and career services director for your campus. Wow again. Suggest you start by hiring a career services coordinator for each campus. Be sure you write up a comprehensive job description and follow it. You want people with career school experience plus employment skills training, staffing, and great at community outreach. Then meet with them to create a list of required career services training for every student that starts when the student enrolls and continues past graduation. Put together a comprehensive community outreach plan where there are visits to all employers and potential employers. Implement plans and measure measure. Suggest you enroll in MaxK Alumni course. It provides the steps for setting up and running an Alumni Community. Your new staff can assist until it is launched and you can hire an Alumni Director. The concepts are similar for setting up career services. Also contact us, as career services and alumni are our passion. susan@susanfschulz.com
