Tips
In addition to these sources that are easily available, we suggest that you keep up with the industries for which your institution's programs train. There are all kinds of publications where you can locate this information. These include, but are not limited to, your local newspaper, business publications, the news, and the Internet.
I love this idea; I am going to introduce the Alumni Association program to my institution.
I think another great resource for a new school to get off and running would be the local Chamber of Commerce in your community. Many professionals will pass on the word especially for graduate programs. If they are not interested themselves, they will hopefully pass the word on.
Francisco,
What a great idea! So many benefits.
A Alumni Association would be a great resource. Old and new students keep in touch with each other share informations about jobs and hiring employers
Randy,
It can be great advertising for your school but it says much more. You are involved and you care!
Community connections is huge! I think the more outreach and networking you do throughout your localized community, the more you learn about your organization and how well it is perceived.
Estela,
Add to your list...networking and community connections.
