Additional Resources and Services
- Syllabus Support
- Graduating students often do not know how to connect what they have learned in the classroom, or in other areas of their college experience to the workforce. Because of this, many employers have a negatively skewed perception of the actual career readiness of our students. CDCE recognized this and has developed the Argo2Pro: Career Readiness Program as a resource to help your students be more prepared and have greater confidence when they graduate. Since faculty are typically the first person a student will go to for career advice, your support and involvement are critical to their success. One thing that CDCE can do, is help you to map the learning outcomes on your syllabi to the Career Readiness Competencies that are most appropriate. For more information on the Argo2Pro: Career Readiness program or to request help in mapping your syllabi, visit www.uwf.edu/argo2pro, or contact your college’s CDCE liaison.
- Whether your course meets face-to-face or online, we even have language ready for you to add directly to your syllabus, canvas shell, or both.
