COVID-19: Shift your Career Center online today and make it effective

Written by Vipin P V | May 17, 2020 8:12:00 AM

The new corona-virus outbreak has prompted college and universities to start shifting classes online — either for a few weeks or for the remainder of the spring semester. This is definitely a very challenging time specially for colleges and universities that are not equipped to efficiently provide career services online and remotely.

Career Services typically require close collaboration between students, career centers and employers for career advising, job search and employer relationship management. This is a highly critical function at any academic institution. However, those institutions, especially smaller sized, whose career centers are not fully online will face heavy disruption. They will not be able to serve their student and employer population during this challenging time. That is why we are offering to help.

 We want to help colleges and universities impacted by COVID-19 to get their career centers online: Starting this week, we’ll roll out free access to Cynaptx advanced Career Services Management system through Aug 1, 2020.
