Skills for Every Calling

As an ambitious student, you want a degree that works hard for you after you graduate. Your degree should be more than just a title on a piece of paper. When you finish college, you should feel fully equipped to make an impact in your new career. This is the goal of 杏吧原版’s Career Readiness Initiative. Through this program, your degree will include endorsements in important career-specific skills and practical hands-on training to use at any job. On your CV or resumé, employers will see all the ways you’ve been equipped to excel in their workplace, and you’ll be truly prepared to do just that. When you choose NU, you’re choosing confidence in your career.

Professional Readiness Courses

Each semester we offer several one-credit workplace readiness courses that teach approximately four professional readiness skills. The courses are organized around competency groups and are “sponsored” by NU colleges or departments.

Core Curriculum Professional Readiness Requirements

Two core elective credits will be shifted to required work readiness credits. These credits can be earned by taking a combination of work readiness courses and introductory internship or job shadowing experiences.

Professional Readiness Transcript

Each student will receive a separate transcript that will report skills, certificates, and other achievements (e.g., dean’s list).

Undergrad Certificates

These are made up of two or three courses that create a clear benefit for work readiness. Courses transferred from other schools can count toward certificates.
