This will be a great networking opportunity for students and to see where they may fit into the environmental and occupational world. However, in order to make the SAP program a success we need your help. We are looking to add companies that are willing to take on a student for a day, so if you know people in industry please provide us with any contact information at csuneohsa@gmail.com in order to add them to our slots. The more companies we get the more opportunities you will have. |
