The CAREER AND ACADEMIC PLANNING (CAP) PROGRAM is a special division of the Creighton Career Center. The CAP Program assists students with a three-step process involving Self-Awareness and Career Decision-Making, Academic and Career Opportunity Exploration, and Job Search Techniques and Skills.
In the beginning……
The Self-Awareness and Career Decision-Making component is a service provided by the CAP Program through individual counseling, assessments, group visits to the office, construction of four-year plans, and attendance at the Career Fairs and Major Exploration Fair.
Then there are choices……
The process of Academic and Career Opportunity Exploration is a fun and enriching experience. Through the CAP Program and the Career Center, assistance is offered by means of counseling, academic major selection, field trips to employer's locations, graduate school information and internship opportunities.
Final Steps……
When the time arrives to find that first job, the Career Center offers suggestions in regards to Search Techniques and Skills. These steps are typically utilized by juniors, seniors, and graduates. Assistance in this step ranges from counseling on resume writing and interview skills to conducting mock interviews. Job opportunities are provided through on-campus interviewing, job referrals and internship referrals.
The Career Center seeks to aid in the transition of the Creighton student from a life of school to a life of work. All services offered and additional information can be found on our homepage: http://www.creighton.edu/careercenter/
