Career services offers signature events throughout the year to allow students the opportunity to experience interacting with business leaders, professionals, and community members. We strive to help our future grads by providing these events so that students are well-equipped with the skills they need to navigate real-world environments.
Career Services is rolling out a new workshop delivery process to meet student, faculty and staff needs. For spring 2021, WSUTC community members will be able to request one of the following workshops and specify any areas of special interest or focus to best meet the needs of the group requesting the workshop.
This event offers students a valuable professional development experience to polish their business dining etiquette and networking skills by practicing good table manners and social skills.
