Committed to being a true partner to colleges and universities by supporting student success, Barnes & Noble College recently partnered with Why Millennials Matter to launch a national study on the state of student career preparation and student perceptions about careers after college.
Attend this web seminar to learn the key findings from the survey related to the career preparation roadmap, the skills that today’s employers are looking for, and how schools can help their students build these skills needed for success.
Topics will include:
- An overview of Barnes & Noble College’s “The College Student Mindset for Career Preparation and Success” study
- A closer look at the survey’s findings around the state of career preparation, including the reasons why following the “traditional career roadmap” is putting today’s Millennial students at a disadvantage
- An overview of the “new career roadmap,” and a deeper dive into the area of skills building, particularly related to the skills that today’s employers are looking for and how they compare to student perceptions
- Examples of how colleges and universities can take a more active role in helping students develop these skills, such as working with employers, the bookstore and other on-campus entities to build partnerships that will help support student success
