As a part of my new job as retention coordinator, it's my privilege to teach the introductory Career Development class. In this class we discuss various topics that may be life changing for students who haven't been exposed to topics like study habits, using technology, dealing with stress, time management, careers, diversity and relationships, positive self talk and affirmations. This allows me to connect with each new student (I plan to become involved to some degree in the sections that I'm not teaching)and share vital information for personal and professional success in addition to developing a relationship with each one. I'm hoping for great outcomes!
