Leveraging Wisr Beyond Mentorship at Cedarville UniversityJohn Knific
In her role as Director of Alumni Relations & Annual Giving, Stephanie Carroll wanted to bring the gap between alumni relations and career services, using these bridges:
1. Common Thought from Alumni: “We want to help the students”
2. Looking for a mentorship program that wouldn’t require a lot of staff time
3. Increase Alumni Affinity and Engagement
4. A desire to not have our alumni on multiple platforms
SCAS Panel Session - Unique Solutions and Practical IdeasNAFCareerAcads
NAF developed a next-generation assessment system designed to model real-world demands, including the integrated application of academic, career-technical and workforce readiness skills. Designed to bridge the gap among high school career-technical programs, post-secondary course articulation, admission policies and workforce readiness, Student Certification Assessment System (SCAS) assesses a broad range of content and skills through rigorous end-of-course exams and evidence-based portfolios combined with supervisor and teacher feedback. This open and interactive panel session will explore benefits and opportunities while providing a problem-oriented approach to implementing and supporting SCAS. Panelists will represent different perspectives, and will be able to offer unique solutions and share practical ideas.
