Career Services
The department of Career Services provides assistance to all
students and alumni in their career
planning and job search. There are three primary services offered
by the department: career
advising, career information, and employment services for
part-time, summer and permanent job
openings.

    Career planning services are provided on an
individual and group
basis to involve students in examining their interests,
abilities, values, goals and opportunities
as part of the career decision-making process. A Career
Information Centre is available to
students seeking information on topics such as educational
programs, work/study/travel abroad,
careers, graduate admission tests, job search techniques, and
potential employers.

    An On-Campus Recruiting Program is available to all
students completing
their final year of a degree or diploma program. Through this
program, employers interview
students during the Fall and Winter Semesters for permanent
employment available upon
graduation. In addition, graduates may register with the Alumni
Referral Service. A Summer
and Part-time Employment Service is also offered.

    Throughout the year, the department sponsors several
programs to
familiarize students with a variety of occupations. These include
events such as Career Fair,
Careers Expo, Teacher Education Sessions, and a Careers in...
series. A newsletter entitled
``For Your Information'', containing information related to
educational, career and employment
opportunities, is published and distributed to students, staff
and faculty. Workshops on resume
writing, job interview preparation, career planning, and job
search are also offered for interested
students.

    Career Services is located on the lower floor of the
Student Services Centre
and is open Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The
office is also open one evening
each week from September to April.
