Partnering Together
At the Career Development Office (CDO) we value the opportunity to collaborate and partner with Fredonia faculty and staff to support students in their professional and academic development. We would like to invite you to explore some of the ways that you can connect with the CDO.
Advance Career Readiness
Learn more about Career Readiness Competencies from the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE). Feel free to incorporate these competencies into your curriculum, projects or programs.
Refer Students or Alumni
Working with students or alumni in need of career planning? Encourage them to schedule an appointment to talk with one of our career counselors at their convenience, or suggest they attend a CDO event (complete listings are posted in FREDNetwork).
Request a CDO Workshop or Presentation
Faculty and staff are invited to request presentations to student groups or classes on a variety of career related topics (i.e., CDO services, resumes, cover letters, internships, job search, LinkedIn, interviewing, graduate school, etc.). If interested in scheduling a presentation with one of our staff, please call the CDO at 716-673-3327 or complete our online Workshop Request Form.
