Round Table & Panel Discussions Consider this: Every banker, every machinist, every healthcare professional was at one time a student. Who better to hear about what's expected of employees, what's changed in the workplace and what classroom learning is most applicable to their career than from them? The Career Readiness team can put together round table and panel discussions with one or more local employers, so you can hear it directly from the source. These events will be scheduled based on demand, so show us your interest by sending us an email. Let us know your preferred format and we'll make it happen!
