Professional Development Passport Program
The Professional Development Passport Program provides students with essential career-building events and networking to match their Jesuit education. This allows students to become familiar with professional development in many ways including resume building, interviewing skills and preparation, job searching techniques, social media responsibilities, and other opportunities in career development.
The program sets expectations for student participation and provides consistent training and preparation to give students an edge in career preparation and professional development. Events, workshops, lectures, and activities given by alumni, business professionals, staff, and faculty touch on various topics related to the student's professional development. Student participation is recorded and applied to their professional development profile.
