CCI Student Professional Development
CCI Professional Development activities are designed to help students gain confidence in communicating their experiences and skills to potential employers through workshops and events led by industry professionals and alums. Additionally, these programs are designed to help students build networking contacts as they seek opportunities. Those who participate indicate an increase in understanding about industry topics, the work of various roles, as well as a better understanding of how to apply transferable skills with their technical knowledge to achieve their goals.
