I loved that this module focused on preparing students before the career fair! This is often something that gets lost in the busy-ness of everything, so I learned a lot of great tactics and ways to help students prepare so they can get more out of the career fair experience. 

Our school has never hosted a Career Event. However, this module gave me a lot of great insight should we ever plan/host one!

How important connecting with our students are regardless if they make time for us. Building our connection with our students helps provide them with the help that is tailored to their needs, in the way they are able to receive and process it. It is not a one size fits all, and each student deserves to have the services tailored in the way that would help best them be successful.

What I learned the most is the importance of building relationships. It is so important and crucial to develop trusting relationships for our students through employers and alumni partnerships, which in turn becomes very beneficial for the students going into the workforce.

My biggest take away is that Career Services is just one aspect of student's success and we have many different avenues to help them succeed. 

Considering the difference between advisor and coach has been enlightening. I enjoyed that section. However, from the small town I teach in, the relationship is almost always already present.

What I have learned, is that the career services department is not alone in supporting the students to gain employment in their field. All departments contribute to their success within their fields.
