As a partner to faculty and staff in supporting students with their future endeavors, Career Services is excited to launch a new way to incorporate career development content into existing Canvas courses.Ìý

The Career Readiness Course consists of eight Canvas modules that can be imported directly into existing Canvas shells. This is an easy way for faculty and staff to share career tips, information and resources with students—regardless of major or program.
