Mission & Learning Outcomes
Mission
Our mission is to provide assistance which empowers students to take personal responsibility in the process of identifying, developing, implementing, and evaluating career plans in preparation for employment after graduation. We develop relationships with a diverse group of organizations to obtain occupational information and opportunities for students that will guide their career development process.
Career Services also serves as a resource for employers seeking to recruit well-educated graduates to fill the Central Valley region’s employment needs.
