Schedule an Appointment
A Career Counselor is ready to meet with you to talk about any of your career needs. All scheduling is handled through Handshake, which can be accessed by both current students and alumni. Log in using your WCU Network ID (e.g., AB654321@wcupa.edu) and password. Alumni may create their own username (a valid email address) and password.
Once signed on, select the Career Center button and you will find an option labeled ‘Appointment’. From here you can select the day and time that works best for you. Your counselor will be altered, approve the selected time, and send you any follow up instructions if necessary.
Request A program
The Career Development Center (CDC) welcomes requests from faculty, staff, and student organizations/groups to deliver career-related programs and workshops! We offer a variety of educational topics and can customize a program for your needs.
CDC professional staff deliver the majority of programs, including class presentations; our Career Ambassadors (CAs) are trained peer educators who perform outreach and conduct programs, typically in the residence halls and to student groups.
Please submit requests at least two weeks in advance. If you have any questions or wish to first discuss program topics and ideas, please email the Career Development Center or call 610-436-2501.
