The Gateway to Professional Success (GPS) Program is a series of six workshops focused on key professional skills that are the critical leadership competencies sought after by employers. Each workshop consists of a short presentation followed by faculty-mentored practice sessions. Faculty experts will be present for each of the six sessions helping students to focus on improving and practicing these critical leadership competencies.
Participants who complete all six workshops will earn a certificate and a stole to be worn during graduation.
The GPS Program is free for all current School of Business and Economics juniors, seniors, and professional MBA students, as well as all EOP juniors and seniors. A short application is required to participate. Seats are limited. Applications for the Spring 2024 program are due Friday, December 15, 2023.
College graduates will be taking on leadership roles much more quickly than they might anticipate after starting their career. SBE graduates who possess strong professional skills will have the best opportunity for being chosen for leadership positions.
Upon completion of all six workshops in the GPS Program, students will receive:
- Certificate of completion that can be included in your resume or shared with future employers
- Stole to be worn at graduation
