Events Calendar
As champions for Career
Literacy, we establish partnerships with high schools,
colleges, businesses and community organizations that are
committed to providing the best career and college major planning
resources for students and parents. As a public service, our
presentations give them essential information they need to
guide their children's college and career exploration and
decision-making. We also hold open houses at our office in
Glen Ellyn, and present on career management topics to mid-career
adult audiences.
Whether your group numbers 12 or several hundred, give us
a call. You be can be instrumental in helping parents learn
the components of making great career choices with their children
by scheduling a presentation or providing an introduction
to a school administrator, guidance counselor, or parents
club.
If your busy schedule doesn't allow you to attend a presentation,
feel free to call us for a copy of the handouts distributed.

on career trends and tips for success, sign
