[Academicadvisors] Thank You + UCR Global Career Accelerator Resources

[Mona Nelson]

Hi everyone,

Thank you again for taking the time to join our recent information session
on the UCR Global Career Accelerator.

As promised, I've attached the presentation deck from the session and
wanted to share a few helpful resources and reminders as you continue
conversations with students.

*Program Website:* https://www.careeraccelerator.ucr.edu/

*A few key reminders:*

   - The Global Career Accelerator is a for-credit experience offered
   through UGRD 198G and housed within Undergraduate Education.
   - Students can earn 4-8 units, depending on the term, while gaining
   hands-on experience through real-world projects and employer-connected
   learning.
   - No prior experience is required, and students from all majors are
   welcome. Career tracks include Digital Marketing, Data Analytics, Web
   Development, Coding for Data, and Career Rotation.
   - Students can participate in multiple tracks over time. Many students
   return to explore additional career areas and continue building their
   skills and experience.
   - The program is often a great fit for students who are looking to gain
   practical experience, explore career paths, build confidence, or strengthen
   their resumes before internships, jobs, or graduate school.

We also briefly discussed our Early Talent Competitions. These are free,
virtual experiences open to students across majors and provide another
great way for students to engage with real employers and build
resume-worthy experience. We'll share additional information and upcoming
opportunities as they become available.

Thank you for your partnership and for all you do to support UCR students.
If there are specific student populations, departments, or advising groups
that would benefit from additional information, please don't hesitate to
reach out.

Best,


The UCR Global Career Accelerator
