There are some great events taking place on campus this semester! You may attend any of the following events and turn in a typed 200 word reaction at the following class period for a possible 25 points of extra credit.
Things you should include on your reaction are the following: the name of the event, the date you attended, and the location. This does NOT count toward your 200 words. Your reaction should be specific and complete. Do not assume that you will receive the full 25 points when you turn it in. I will score it like any other paper.
REMEMBER, THE REACTION IS TO BE TURNED IN AT THE NEXT CLASS PERIOD AFTER THE EVENT YOU ATTEND! Example: If you attend an event on Monday, you must turn in your reaction on Wednesday.
NO EXCEPTIONS.
Career Pathways is offering events this semester to help students explore careers.
Career Pathways, a program for career preparation and workforce development at Johnson County Community College, is planning several events this semester to encourage students to examine careers and undertake a plan of study that will lead to the career of their choice.
• Health Careers Fair, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Friday, Feb. 18, RC 101. More than 25 representatives from the medical community seeking future employees will be on hand. This is geared for JCCC students as well as students from local high schools.
• JCCC’s Career and Tech Expo, 11 a.m.-12:45 p.m., Saturday, April 30, Carlsen Center lobby. Representatives from more than 50 career and technical preparation programs at JCCC will be available to share information with parents and students on programs ranging from automotive technology to veterinary technology. The wide array of new and exciting options for 21st-century career information such as job outlook, potential salaries, as well as training and educational requirements will be available.
For more information, contact Minnie Adams, director, Career Pathways and Cooperative Programs, madams52@jccc.edu at ext. 4710.
There are also three more options that you have through Career Services. All of the following events will take place at the Campus Center in COM 319. Pizza or a snack will be provided.
