Virtual Curriculum-to-Career Innovations Institute – May 6
Posted by American Association of Colleges & Universities on April 19, 2022
The influences of globalization, racial inequities, and economic reshuffling have prompted new opportunities for institutions of higher education to reassert their roles as essential conduits for meaningful career preparedness. Co-directed by the American Association of Colleges & Universities (AAC&U) and IBM, the Curriculum-to-Career Innovations Institute supports campuses of all types to develop or enhance equitable, experiential, curriculum-based projects to prepare students for a range of career paths. Learn more about the goals of the Institute here. This semester-long virtual institute, August 11 – December 16, 2022, kicks-off August 11 & 12.
This semester-long virtual Institute’s sessions will revolve around four themes:
- Defining and Assessing Skills for Equitable Career Preparation
- Developing and Scaling Equitable High-Impact Experiences for Career Success
- Promoting and Supporting Interdisciplinary Design Thinking
- Advancing Models for Effective Campus/Industry Partnerships
Each Institute team will receive guidance from mentors from both higher education and industry to ensure projects are developed with a breadth of cutting-edge expertise, academic rigor, and practical strategies for implementation.
