Defining the mission for Career Services is important. It should be a collaborative effort from stakeholders to get buy in to what CS is working towards. Once you've outlined where you want to go and who you want to be....start concentrating on building rapport with students, instructors, admissions, leadership, and of course our employer-partners to build a comprehensive team. This team work will improve student involvement, job preparation, job search and utimately produce good outcomes. It's these outcomes that can be used by the institution as a selling point when trying to find new perspective students. And CS should maintain an open channel of communication with all to ensure continuous improvement in the programs provided.
