Career Services has been very supportive of my Studio 094 class! They've come to my class to teach lessons, guided my students through a visit to the career services, and have given my students extra resources. Career services has been an excellent teaching tool that my students may not have otherwise known about. I find this to be an extremely valuable resource." -Chelle Costello, English and Humanities Instructor

I appreciate the support provided by the Career Services department for assisting my accounting students with up-to-date job search strategies and providing them with a mock job interview experience, including feedback, in order for our graduating students to be better prepared to obtain professional employment. Thank you for your help!" -Lori Hatchell, Accounting Professor
We offer two free career assessments that will help students identify their skills, talents, values, workplace preferences, aptitudes and interests. These assessments can be used as part of an assignment for students. If you are curious about these assessments and want to try them out for yourself, contact us.
The PathwayU presentation helped my students identify their values and strengths, which is useful on a number of levels. They were excited about the career opportunities PathwayU directed them toward, and it helped them think about the many career paths available to them. As an instructor, I appreciated the chance to work with students and discuss their goals outside of Aims. This workshop helped motivate students by reminding them of their purpose in taking classes at Aims, and it helped them focus on the skills they need to develop to be successful. In addition, the workshop helped our classroom community, as students discovered values and talents they shared with others, as well as key differences. The presentation was organized and paced well, giving students the chance to discuss as well as reflect." -Leslie Morrison, English Instructor
We can leverage our network of employers, Employment Services of Weld County, Aims’ Alumni Connection, and Aims’ Center for Workforce Development & Innovation to help you find the perfect guest speaker for your class!
