Career Development

Whether you are a student, a prospective student, an employer, or a community partner, the Career Development Team at HACC wants to help you. As a team, our primary function is to support our students' professional growth and development toward their career goals; however, we also work hard to connect students, businesses, and community partners.

An integral part of any college student's educational experience should be their career development. To be successful in the challenging workforce of the 21st century, students need to be proactive and have the foresight to connect their education to the world of work. For this reason, the career team offers to help students "begin with the end in mind."

The Career Development office can help students at all stages of their educational journey. Early in their experience, students can utilize Career Development resources to explore career options and make informed decisions about majors and occupations. Once a student has decided on a major, the career staff can help students design a career development plan and explore infield experience options. Then, as students begin to move toward the completion of their programs, the team can help students prepare for the job search.

Students are encouraged to explore the Career Development webpage to learn more about how Career Development can—and should—be a vital part of their educational experience at HACC.
