<p>Doris - Interesting situation about lack of space to hold workshops.&nbsp; Do you think any of your employers would make space available for students to practice their employment skills training?&nbsp; Maybe these employers would even conduct mock interviews and make it very real.&nbsp; If you keep in touch with alumni then you can ask them to assist you in many different ways.&nbsp; Great idea about letters from grads.&nbsp; Have you considered asking for Student Success Stories.&nbsp; The Alumni Director at Pima Medical Institute, June Gudeman, has student success stories mounted graphically on wall boards.&nbsp; She posts them throughout the schools.&nbsp; You can imagine how powerful these are when new students are touring the school!&nbsp; And how inspirational to all students and staff.&nbsp; June facilitates MaxKnowledge course on how to set up an alumni community!&nbsp; Susan</p>
