uConnect

As a first-generation college student from a small town in Ohio, Dr. Rodney K. Rogers - BGSU President has been directly impacted by the power of education. He’d be the first to say he never thought he would be a college president. It’s why he is passionate about ensuring students are intentionally equipped and empowered to fully leverage all that the college experience has to offer. Hear more about how #BGSU has become a national leader in innovation among higher education by focusing on the student experience in navigating college and career, as well as President Rogers’ own career and journey on the uConnect Career Everywhere Podcast, hosted by Meredith Metsker and joined by Steve Russell, the AVP of Corporate Partnerships and Executive Director of the BGSU Kuhlin Hub for Career Design and Connections.

And that’s a wrap on in Orlando!

We had a great time seeing so many friends and partners in person. And we loved hearing about all the amazing things our customers are doing to bring Career Everywhere to their campuses and make career services accessible to anyone, anywhere, anytime. 🚀

Huge thanks to the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) for another great conference. We’re already looking forward to next year’s conference in Phoenix! ☀️

We are so proud to work with entrepreneurial leaders like Harold Bell and his team at Spelman College, who fully funded their uConnect virtual career center (and more!) through digital corporate sponsorships from Carrier, Wells Fargo, Salesforce, and Zynga.

While career service offices across the nation face budget cuts or funding restraints and struggle to engage students in the digital era, the work of Spelman's Career and Professional Development office shows the power of connecting employers to students digitally—without having to pay the costs as an office.

Here's how they do it. 👇
