Today's Students, Tomorrow's Workers

Today's Students, Tomorrow's Workers

A panel of local university deans and professors will speak to us about today's students. How are they different? How are they the same? What changes have they made to teaching methods or tools in recent years? What is working? Where do they think the gaps are for their graduates as they join the workforce?

After the panel talks to us about their students, we will allow them to ask the attendees a few questions that they want to know from our corporate leaders.

Also present for networking time will be local college representatives with information for those members who are looking to join the student population again with a certificate or masters program.
