The LLCC Career Center is gearing-up for a college-wide celebration of National Career Development Month (NCDM). We are excited to invite all faculty, administrators and staff to participate in our passive programming for NCDM. In the first week of November everyone will receive an 8 ½ x 14 poster titled “My Story, From Learning to Earning.” The poster has two columns denoting “My Education & Training” and “My Careers.” In support of NCDM, please complete the poster with your education, training and careers/job titles. Higher education organizations and activities, specialized certifications and related information can be included in the education section. Consider adding your high school or training at CACC if it applies.

Place the poster by Nov. 10 on your door, window, cubicle or other highly visible location where students will be able to see and read your information. The poster may prompt conversation and career engagement with students. Your poster can grow throughout the month, by adding photos, favorite quotes or even memes to add context and flair.

During our National Career Development Week activities (Nov. 13-16), we will encourage students to review the posters displayed throughout the college. Students may choose to connect with faculty, administrators or staff who have career paths in their interest area or who have a connection to a school they are considering transferring to for a bachelor’s degree.

Please reach out to the LLCC Career Center with any questions (CareerCenter@llcc.edu). We look forward to learning more about your story. Extra posters will be available in the LLCC Foundation office.

Thank you,
LLCC Career Center

Last spring the college combined business relations, career services and work-based learning under LLCC Advancement. Moving forward, these services and functions will be promoted and identified as the LLCC Career Center. The LLCC Career Center will be the central resource for excellence in student career development and a trusted collaborative partner for local employers and community stakeholders. More updates will be coming throughout the fall semester.
