Review Quotes:
"In today's higher education climate, it's no longer good enough for institutions to focus on learning solely for learning's sake. Students and their families expect more, and employers demand more. Having a strong career center is important, but institutions that don't want to be left behind need to make student career readiness a campus-wide priority. Readers of Mapping the Future of Undergraduate Career Education will find new strategies for placing a deliberate, impactful focus on ensuring that students can connect what they are learning in college to their first job and their long-term career."
-- Paul Timmins, Executive Director, University of Oregon Career Center, Former President, National Career Development Association, USA
"This text is timely and provocative: a much-needed resource for institutions that strive to be student ready and forward thinking in their approach to undergraduate career preparation."
