EVALUATION/ASSESSMENT

Career Services continues the implementation of a comprehensive assessment and evaluation program to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of all career services, programs, and resources. Career Services staff members solicit feedback from constituents to gain a better understanding of their needs and satisfaction levels. Programs are revised, added, or eliminated based on feedback received. Below are brief summaries of the different components of the program:

ASSESSMENT PROGRAM COMPONENTS 1. Objectives and Outcomes In March/April of each year, Career Services staff members review the past year's programs, schedule programs for the upcoming Academic Year, and set objectives and outcomes. A complete schedule of programs/events and an Assessment Program is developed for the upcoming academic year. 2. Staff Evaluation As part of Career Services' assessment and evaluation program, staff members participate in an annual evaluation cycle of goal setting and evaluation:

-March/April: Develop Individual and Department Objectives and Outcomes -April/May: Annual Performance Evaluation (A&P)

3. Staff Accountability and Record-Keeping Staff members maintain a number of record-keeping logs to track their travel, long distance phone calls, job development, site visitation, and liaison activity. Within 48 hours of conducting an outreach presentation, staff members complete and submit a "Career Program/Outreach Report" providing statistical data for career presentations. This information is compiled in a spread sheet for the annual report. This form also provides a means for doing a cost-benefit analysis. This report provides data regarding dates and times, type of program, requestor, and a brief cost breakdown for the program.

4. Budget Development In March/April of each year, Career Services staff members create a tentative calendar of programs and events and develop a budget to cover the costs of all programs. Program summaries and evaluations are considered at this time.

5. Annual Report Compiled in June of each year, the Annual Report provides both narrative and graphical descriptions of Career Services' programs and activities for the Academic Year. The annual report also provides a statistical analysis of student and employer contacts throughout the year.

6. Staff Meetings/Minutes Career Services staff members meet the last Wednesday of each month from 8:30 a.m.-10:00 a.m. to discuss upcoming programs, services, policies and procedures, and other issues and concerns regarding all aspects of day-to-day operation. Minutes are compiled and distributed to staff by noon, Wednesday of each week to document achievement of objectives and outcomes.

ASSESSMENT PROGRAM: SOURCES OF CONSITUENT FEEDBACK/INPUT

1. Online Comment Cards (Students and Alumni) Our front office staff members ask students who come into Career Services to take a few minutes to complete an online comment card and provide feedback about on their visit and the level of satisfaction with services. 2. Follow-up Survey- (Students) In April of each year, Career Services sends a follow-up survey to all students who registered with Career Services to get their feedback about our services, programs and resources. 3. On-campus Recruiting Programs-(Employers) Employers who recruit on our campus are asked to complete an evaluation at the end of the day. 4. Program Evaluations- (Students and Employers) Career Services has created a standard evaluation form that is used at all major career programs and workshops. These evaluations ask participants (students and employers) to comment on the program and their level of satisfaction with the program. A Program Summary is developed and written based on program registration and evaluation for all major programs: Fall Osprey Career Fair (September) Fall CCEC Employer Showcase (October) Pre-Law Day (October) Graduate and Professional School Day (October) Physical Therapy Job Fair (November) Spring Osprey Career Fair (January) Spring CCEC Employer Showcase (February) Spring Education Job Fair (April) UNF Majors and Minors Fair (April) UNF Alumni Job Fair (May) 5. Internship/Cooperative Education Program Evaluations- (Students and Employers) The Cooperative Education and Internship Program uses a number of evaluations for both individual student work performance and to assess the program. Forms include: Student Work Period Reports, Employer Evaluations, and Co-Op Orientation Evaluation Forms.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS Career Services continues to develop and expand our wide range of career services, programs and resources. Through partnerships with each of the UNF Colleges, office space has been made available within each college to develop a Career Services satellite office. By having Career Coordinators in each college, Career Services has been able to reach more students and connect with more faculty and ultimately engage more students in their own career development. Staff members assigned as liaisons to these areas contact individual faculty members, speak to departments, meet with student groups, and conduct career presentations in classrooms. Each liaison is responsible for developing outreach and marketing strategies to heighten awareness about Career Services in their areas. In the 2013/2014 Academic Year we hope to continue to fully develop these working relationships and increase student and employer participation in all career programs. The Career Discoveries Team headed by Associate Director, Vivian Senior, will develop and implement a comprehensive first-year experience career development program with strong focus on programs and services for freshmen to engage them in the career development process early in their UNF career. We will also expand our programs and services for sophomores and undecided or undeclared majors. Dr. Barb Hetrick, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences (COAS) has made a concerted push for COAS Academic Departments to develop internship programs for their disciplines. Career Services has partnered with COAS to increase internship opportunities and to encourage students to gain valuable experience in their field. Career Services Employer Relations Coordinator, Brooke Hammon, has been doing extensive outreach to the Jacksonville community to seek out and develop internship sites for COAS students. For the 2013-14 Academic Year, Career Services will continue to focus on the development of internships for COAS Academic Departments and students. For the upcoming year, Career Services will continue to develop and implement a comprehensive marketing and outreach campaign to increase awareness about Career Services and increase participation by students and graduates. This will include expanding and developing our presence on Facebook and Twitter. Career Services staff members will continue to focus on providing excellent customer services. All aspects of our customer service should see big increases in levels of satisfaction.

FUTURE CHALLENGES Communication with all constituents on large university campus such as UNF continues to be a major challenge for Career Services. Many students tell us that “they didn’t know Career Services was here” or they “weren’t sure how they could help me.” It will be important to continually reach out to all constituents to keep them informed about Career Services and to motivate them to become engaged in their own career development. We are optimistic about the 2013/2014 Academic Year in terms of employer participation and employment opportunities for our students. We have already seen some increases in employer activity from the previous year and all signs are pointing to a gradual economic recovery. We hope this will translate into increased participation by employers at all of our major job fairs. We also hope that we will see large increases in the numbers of jobs being posted in Career Wings. This all translates into more job and career opportunities for UNF students. There is still a need for more data on post graduate activities and pursuits of UNF graduates. Career Services is hoping that funding will be available to contract with consulting firm, Ruffalo Cody, to conduct graduate surveys for three graduating classes to give us a better idea of how our graduates are doing in the job market and how we can better prepare them for the world of work Although the economy continues to improve, University budgets still have not changed much and we continue to “do more with less.” Our dedicated staff members have accomplished much with limited resources and we hope that in the future we will see additional funding and resources to help us expand our career services and programs.

Continuous Improvement Career Services recognizes students as our main priority, as we focus on effectively serving all of our constituents. Our customer service feedback indicated the need to continue structuring our schedules for individual appointments and walk-in service to accommodate diverse student schedules. We also recognize how budget constraints impact our ability to attend professional development conferences to keep our skills honed and our knowledge at cutting edge levels. However, staff members participated in webinars and continuously review data and trends from credible national sources. While the majority of student feedback indicated high levels of satisfaction, Career Services remains committed to actively reviewing and assessing its programs, services and events in order to maintain and improve its effectiveness, relevancy and efficiency on a regular basis. We will continue our focus on:

• All staff members will continue to focus on excellent customer service for all constituents • Regular customer service training sessions for all frontline staff members including OPS and Work Study

Students • We will explore scheduling options to facilitate student appointments • We will continue to develop programs and resources that will facilitate the S.T.A.R. Program and increase

the number of students participating in some aspect of the S.T.A.R. program Department Goal #2: Implement a comprehensive outreach and marketing program to increase awareness for all constituents about Career Services’ programs and resources.

University Goal: #2 Recruit and support a diverse community of students, faculty and staff, who will contribute to and benefit from the University’s Mission Division Goal #4: Foster a culture that promotes mutual respect, ethical behavior, and social responsibility and aspires to uphold the UNF Values.

Action 1a: Increase the department’s communication with students and alumni through the use of social media (Timeline: July 2012 – June 2013). Person Responsible: Events Coordinator and Office Manager. With the departure of the A&P Events and Marketing Coordinator, Jocelynn Heck in November, 2012, it provided an opportunity for Career Services to reorganize its staffing configuration. The A&P Position was reclassified to a full-time USPS Program Assistant position. Jackie Pruett assumed these duties and will focus primarily on coordinating all registrations for major job fairs and career events. The reclassification freed up funds for Career Services to hire an OPS Student Marketing Assistant. Nicole Sabol, a communication student, was hired for this position and has developed a more comprehensive marketing program for Career Services. Her accomplishments include: • Developing and Managing the Career Services “Facebook” page. She has already increased the number of students who “like” the Career Services Facebook page. She also has plans to expand our outreach on Twitter. • Several banners and banner stands that promote Career Wings were developed and are displayed throughout the semester in strategic locations to highlight the online job posting program. • Working with Cathy Cole of Marketing and Publications to enforce the flyer approval policy among the Career Services Staff. All flyers or marketing materials are sent to Nicole, who then sends them to Cathy for approval. Nicole then edits the collateral material. • Obtaining a customized UNF Career Services logo which has been featured on all marketing material. The logo was created by graphic designers in the Marketing and Publication office. • For all major events she has developed the following strategies:

• Tripled the number of road signs that are placed in strategic locations across campus • Designed and distributed event flyers in all Residential halls and campus bulletin boards • Designed and distributed table tents placed on tables in the dining hall • Created slide shows that highlight Career Services events on the TVs in the Student Union as well as the two TV displays in Career Services. • Created posters for A-Frame displays in front and back of our building • Posted event info on the UNF Electronic Sign Boards at each campus entrance.

Action 1b: Utilize student assistants (through Work Study, internships or co-ops) to expand the department’s marketing outreach particularly through social media (Timeline: July 2012 – June 2013). Person Responsible: Events Coordinator; Director. Career Services hired Erick Argueta, Catie Bibbens, Caroline Lockhart, Jasmine Morales, Janna Mosinyan, Phillip Whalen, Shanice Williams and Marria Woods-Well as student assistants. They helped distribute flyers around campus and at UNF Market Days. Catie Bibbens also assisted the Office Manager with social media posts. Action 2: Promote the Career Wings system on-campus to students and assist students in its daily use and operation as a result of outreach efforts. (Timeline: July 2012 – June 2013). Persons Responsible: All Staff. Marketing Coordinator, Nicole Sabol, highlighted jobs from Career Wings on the Career Services Facebook page in order to direct student traffic to the system. She also highlighted jobs and internships in a monthly newsletter which was sent to students registered in Career Wings that belong to the Brooks College of Health, College of Arts and Sciences or the College of Education and Human Services. Each college received a customized newsletter featuring jobs relevant to their career paths. Nicole also created a slide for the in-office PowerPoint slide show which encouraged students to register for a Career Wings account in order to find jobs and internships. This PowerPoint is displayed on two televisions, one inside the office and one in the hallway of building 2. Action 3: Increase the awareness of Career Services through on-campus presentations, promotional materials, meetings with faculty and/or interaction with other on-campus constituents (Timeline: July 2012 – June 2013). Persons Responsible: All Staff.

The Career Discoveries unit conducted a total of 122 presentations and 38 meetings with campus constituents. The Associate Director conducted 37 presentations and 17 meetings. The Career Counselor conducted 61 presentations and 21 meetings. The remaining 24 presentations or

programs were conducted by Peer Advisors under the direction of the Career Counselor.

The liaisons to the College of Arts and Science conducted 98 presentations and made 103 contacts with faculty, administrators and students group leaders. Valarie Robinson conducted 59 presentations and made 69 contacts with faculty, administrators, student group leaders, and UNF constituents. Dee Dee Wyckoff conducted 39 presentations and made 34 contacts with faculty, administrators, student group leaders, and UNF constituents. The liaison to the College of Education and Human Services conducted 41 presentations and made 21 contacts with faculty, administrators and groups leaders. The liaisons to the College of Computing, Engineering, and Construction conducted 39 presentations and made 53 contacts with faculty, administrators and students group leaders. The liaison to the Brooks College of Health conducted 34 presentations and made 23 contacts with

faculty, administrators and student group leaders.

The Employer Relations Coordinator for the College of Arts and Science has met with 13 of the 15 Department Chairs within the college, as well as faculty who has internship duties assigned, since January 2013 in order to gain an understanding of each department’s current internship programs and how to put a cohesive plan in action. In addition to these one on one meetings, the Employer Relations Coordinator has attended faculty meetings for Biology, Sociology and Anthropology, as well as a speaking presentation for the COAS Dean’s Development Council and the Center for Community Based Learning.

Outcome 1: Students and alumni will learn more about upcoming events, programs, services and recruiting opportunities provided by Career Services through the department’s social media.

Outcome 2: There will be an increase in students accessing and using the Career Wings system. Outcome 3: Faculty and other on-campus constituents will be more informed and aware of services provided to students through Career Services.

Evaluation 1: Calculate the number of students and alumni who “like” the department’s Facebook.com page. We should see at least a 10% increase. The number of Facebook likes increased by 52%. We began with 308 likes at the beginning of August 2012 and increased to 467 likes as of April 2013.

Evaluation 2: Calculate the number of new students and alumni in Career Wings. We should see at least a

10% increase. For the 2011-2012 Academic Year, 3591 new students registered in Career Wings. For the 2012-13 year, 3023 new students registered in Career Wings which is an 18.7 % decrease. We believe the decrease can be attributed to the fact that Freshman Enrollment at the University dropped significantly for the 2012-13 Academic Year. A breakdown of new student registration in Career Wings is given below:

Total New Student Registered in Career Wings May 1, 2012 - April 25, 2013

28

Evaluation 3: Calculate the number of presentations and meetings with faculty and other on-campus constituents. We should see at least a 5% increase in the number of presentations and meetings The Career Discoveries unit had a 20% decrease in presentations and programs (3% increase for the Associate Director and 26% decrease for the Career Counselor) when compared to last year and a 45% decrease in meetings (19% decrease for the Associate Director and 57% decrease for the Career Counselor). Programming data during the 2011/12 year was significantly higher due to additional programming performed by two interns and peer advisors. We only had one intern this past year whose schedule did not allow for programming. The Career Counselor’s programs were significantly higher for 2011/12 because it included programming performed by Peer Advisors under her supervision. This year, we are including those numbers separately. The abundance of connections with faculty and staff constituents during the 2011/12 year were maintained this year and new meetings were conducted. The liaisons to the College of Arts and Sciences maintained the same number of presentations as 2011-12 (98) and had a 15% increase in faculty and on-campus constituent contacts. Valarie Robinson had a 3.5% increase in presentations and a 50% increase in faculty and on-campus constituent contacts. Dee Dee Wyckoff maintained the same number of presentations as 2011-12 (39) and had a 21% decrease in faculty and on-campus constituent contacts. (Note: Dee Dee Wyckoff was on Maternity Leave from November 2012-to late January 2013. Ms. Wyckoff will continue to reach out to faculty and on-campus constituents.) The liaisons to the College of Computing, Engineering, and Construction had a 15% increase in presentations and a 23% increase in faculty and on-campus constituent contacts. The liaison to the College of Education and Human Services had a 17% increase in presentations and a 48% decrease in faculty and on-campus constituent contact. (Note: The decrease in contact is primarily due to the fact that most contact is now conducted via email or over the phone instead of actual face-to face meetings.)

The liaison to the Brooks College of Health had a 32% decrease in presentations and a 48%

decrease in faculty and on-campus constituent contacts. (The decrease in percentages from 2012-2013 was due to two factors. The liaison was on maternity leave for 3 and a half months. Also, STAR was offered in a more condensed fashion to classes to allow for the further development of services to students and employers. This resulted in less students completing all steps of the STAR process.)

Continuous Improvement: Reclassifying the Events and Marketing Coordinator from an A&P position to a USPS Program Assistant Position has enabled us to handle all career program registrations efficiently and effectively and also create an OPS Marketing Coordinator position. Jackie Pruett, Program Assistant, moved into the Events Coordinator position and has been able to maintain the registration system at a high level. Nicole Sabol was hired as the Marketing Coordinator and has done an outstanding job of expanding and developing the outreach and marketing for Career Services programs, services and resources. Based on the success of this reorganization we will continue to maintain both positions. Nicole will graduate in December, 2013 and we hope to hire another UNF student to pick up where she left off. We will continue to monitor and evaluate these two aspects of our programming to ensure that we maintain high standards. Looking to increase new student registration in Career Wings, we are looking at expanding an outreach campaign to promote Career Wings and to encourage students to register and access the job and internship opportunities. We are also hoping to hire an OPS Graduate Assistant to assist with programs and services targeting Freshmen and Sophomores and deciding and exploring students.

At least 75% of those who said that they utilized the Career Services website will indicate: "Excellent" or "Very Good" when asked: "How would you rate the Career Services Webpage (www.unf.edu/careerservices)?" A Follow-up Survey was sent out in April 2013 to all students registered in Career Wings. Of those students who indicated they utilized the Career Services Website, 60.25% “Excellent” or “Very Good.” Evaluation 1b: Using a Webpage tracking system, Google Analytics, record the number of students who accessed and utilized the Career Services website and compare to the previous year. We should see at least a 10% increase in student usage. According to Google Analytics, unique visitors to our website increased by 12,971, from 18,240 to 31,211 or a 71% increase when compared to the previous year. There were also 264,270 page views of Career Services webpages. Evaluation 2: A follow-up survey will be sent to students registered in Career Wings, for those who indicated they used EDGE E-Magazine or Career Discoveries, at least 75% will indicate: "Strongly Agree” or “Agree” when asked: "The goal of EDGE E-Magazines and Career Discoveries is to provide information about career development, job search strategies, and resumes and cover letters. Did we meet this goal?” A Follow-up Survey was sent out in April 2013 to all students registered in Career Wings. Of those students who indicated they utilized the EDGE E-magazines, 76.28%% indicated they Strongly Agree or Agree.

31

Services budgets will reach higher levels that will allow us to hire an OPS Student Graphic Designer to work on our pages to improve the look and functionality of all pages. During the Summer of 2013, Career Services staff members will review all department webpages and edit and add content and graphics. The Career Services Website Committee continues to meet to look for ways to improve the students’ experience when they access the website. Links to the Career Services Social Media site, Facebook, have been added to the Career Services webpages to increase student traffic to that site. The EDGE Emagazines are a good resource for students but the current format is not easily accessible for a generation of students who like quick and easy “apps.” During the Summer of 2013, we will pull the EDGE Emagazines apart and create a series of website links by topic (for example: Interviewing, Job Search, Setting up an Internship, Applying to Graduate school, etc. ) We will continue to look for corporate sponsors for these resources and pages to help support the development of these resources. We should see a significant increase in student positive feedback for our website resources. Department Goal #4: Offer comprehensive career counseling and job search counseling services for students.

University Goal #1: Cultivate a learning environment that supports intellectual curiosity, academic achievement, and personal growth. Division Goal 1: Cultivate a supportive and inclusive environment that promotes holistic student development to ensure an optimal learning experience.

(Staff Development)

Action 1: Continue offering effective career counseling and assessment services targeting Freshmen, Sophomores and deciding and exploring students. (Timeline: July 2012-June 2013) Persons Responsible: Associate Director, Career Counselor, and Support Staff Vivian Senior, Associate Director, and Paula Michael Dass, Career Counselor, continued to offer effective career counseling assistance to freshmen, sophomores and exploring and deciding students at the junior and senior levels. Supplemental tools include formal assessments tools such as the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and Strong Interest Inventory to help students identify and connect their interests and personality to viable majors and careers. This team has maintained assessment certification and national counselor certification credentials. They also continuously refine career counseling and assessment interpretation skills through continuous professional development via webinars offered through national associations. Informal assessment tools and credible career exploration and job market data are also incorporated to help students make wise decisions. To ease the payment process for formal career assessments, Career Services worked with Michael Biagini, in the Controller’s Office, and added a “Marketplace” on our webpage to offer an online payment option. This process decreased the wait time for students to schedule appointments for a professional interpretation of their results with a career counselor.

Action 2: Career Services Liaisons will coordinate and implement the S.T.A.R. Program in each of their respective colleges. They will provide individual job search counseling and encourage participation in workshops, activities, and events related to students’ professional development. (Timeline: July 2012-June 2013). Persons Responsible: Director, Career Liaisons, Events Coordinator, and Support Staff The Career Liaison Team continued to offer effective employability skills and job search counseling for students through the S.T.A.R program workshops and individual appointments. This team included: • COAS Students: Coordinator, Valarie Robinson, and Coordinator, Dee Dee Wyckoff (28 hours per week) • CCEC Students: Coordinator, Rebecca Johnson, and OPS Staff, Sharon Snow • COEHS Students: Coordinator, Maria Castro • BCH Students: Coordinator: Rachel Martin

32

• Alumni Appointments: Dee Dee Wyckoff (10 Hours per week-OPS) Students developed resume writing, interviewing and job search skills to transition effectively into internship and career opportunities. Career Liaisons maintained their effectiveness by participating in professional development webinars and reviewing trends and data offering through credible national sources.

Note: Dee Dee Wyckoff and Rachel Martin were on maternity leave during the same time period of 3-4 months from November through February. Director, Rick Roberts maintained COAS and BCH appointments and class presentations in their absence. OPS Career Advisor, Joanna Ale, was hired to critique Career Wings resumes and InterviewStream submissions during their absence. Outcome 1a: Students will learn how to engage in self-assessment activities targeted to identifying suitable majors and career options. Outcome 1b: Students will learn how to explore majors, careers and gain an understanding of occupational and employment trends. Outcome 2a: There will be an increase in the number of students participating in the S.T.A.R. Program.

Outcome 2b: Students who attend the resume and job search workshops and have their resume critiqued will learn how to develop a resume, write cover letters, and conduct job search campaigns.

Outcome 2c: Students who attend interviewing workshops and have a practice interview will learn how to present themselves effectively to employers in an interview.

Outcome 2d: Student who participate and become S.T.A.R. Certified will be more knowledgeable and prepared to pursue employment. Evaluation 1a: A follow-up survey will be given to students utilizing career counseling services. At least 75% of respondents should answer "Strongly Agree" or "Agree" when asked: “After using career counseling services I know how to make informed decisions when identifying and choosing a major or career path?” A Follow-up Survey was sent out in April 2013 to all students registered in Career Wings. Of those who indicated they utilized career counseling services, 81.87% responded “Strongly Agree” or “Agree”. Evaluation 1b: A follow-up survey will be given to students participating in career development programs. At least 75% of respondents should answer "Strongly Agree" or "Agree" when asked: "Our goal was to teach you how to identify and explore suitable majors and career options. Did we meet this goal?" A Follow-up Survey was sent out in April 2013 to all students registered in Career Wings. Of those who indicated they utilized career counseling services, 80.73%% indicated “Strongly Agree” or “Agree”. Evaluation 2a: Utilize the Career Wings System to track the number of students who participated in each component of the STAR Program and compare to last year. We should see at least a 10% increase in the number of students participating in the program. Due to a programming error, we were not able to generate an accurate count of students who participated in the S.T.A.R. Program for the 2011-2012 Academic Year and the data we had was not valid. We have worked with our service provider, CSO Interfase to add several fields to the Career Wings data base to more effectively generate a report for students participating and completing the S.T.A.R. program. We will be able to draw a comparison in the 2013-2014 Goals and Objectives summary. Below is a summary of student S.T.A.R. participation and completion for the 2012-13 Academic Year:

Continuous Improvement: The Career Discoveries Unit consists of full-time National Certified Counselors who possess specialized education, career assessment certifications and training to assist students with identification and clarification of personality traits, interests and values to choose majors, explore careers and workplace trends and determine career direction. When available, trained Graduate Counseling Interns assist this unit. A lack of an adequate number of staff to serve more students and offer additional programs continues to be a challenge. We continuously seek ways to enhance and improve our delivery of programs and services targeted to freshman, sophomores and any deciding and exploring students. Our challenge and focus will continue to consist of implementing marketing and outreach strategies to engage more students in career counseling earlier in their college careers and to secure more staff in this unit. Fall 2012 enrollment for the College of Arts and Sciences was 6,989 students. Currently, two Career Services staff members are assigned to this college; one full-time coordinator and one part-time coordinator (27.5 hours per week). They have effectively established a collaborative relationship with the academic advisors and faculty. The result was an increase in student requests for appointments (both currently enrolled and new admit status). The Criminal Justice Department incorporated the S.T.A.R. process into its Pre-internship course in fall 2008. As of spring 2013 the Communication Department has done the same for its newly established Pre-internship course. An Employer Relations Coordinator was hired January 2013 with the goal of developing internship sites for COAS students. The spring 2013 outreach to department chairpersons has further increased the need for additional staff to address the career development needs of liberal arts students for internships. Like the Career Discoveries Unit, there is also a lack of adequate staff to serve the COAS student population. Efforts are being made to secure full-time hours for the current part-time liaison. In spite of the challenges, employer feedback concerning student preparation for the 2012 Pre-Law Day was very positive; 95% rated student engagement as Excellent or Very Good. Students, via an on-line survey, responded that they would refer other students to Career Services; COAS liaisons were mentioned by name and/or majors served. The COAS Liaisons will continue to conduct class and student club presentations as a method to reach more students. Employer feedback for the major job fairs and career programs shows some mixed results. For many of the programs we did see that at least 75% of employers indicated that students were prepared and their resumes were excellent or good. However, for some of the programs (Both Osprey Career Fairs, CCEC Employer Showcase Spring and UNF Alumni Job Fair) we did not meet our anticipated goal of 75% Excellent or Very Good ratings. These ratings were based on feedback received from employers attending our job fairs and major career programs. It is possible that many students who attend these events did not have their resume critiqued by Career Services

staff members. Therefore, we were unable to have any input regarding the quality of their resumes. That being said, helping students prepare to meet with employers continues to be a high priority. We will continue to market the S.T.A.R. program to students to increase student participation and look to increase the employer ratings of our students’ resumes. Department Goal #5: Plan and implement a series of major career programs and events designed to help students implement their career goals.

Action 8: Plan and Collaborate with the Disability Resource Center to develop a career program to meet the career development needs of UNF students with disabilities. Career Services has maintained effective collaborative ties to the Disability Resource Center that has resulted in regular student referrals for career counseling and we offer a valuable collection of career resources targeted to this population. As a result of this connection, the following initiatives were accomplished or are in progress: • THRIVE Program – an initiative developed by a previous Career Counseling intern. The program targets students with Asperger’s Syndrome and in addition to life skills and college success; it includes a strong career development component. Under the Associate Director’s supervision, an in collaboration with this program, the prior intern uses an office in Career Services to more effectively engage these students in the career planning process. This program is on-going. • Professional Development: Associated Director coordinated the offering of a webinar for Career Counselors and Coordinators titled “Career Counseling Students with Asperger's Syndrome” on 1/23/13. • Community Outreach: Associate Director & Career Counselor facilitated workshops at the Student Union for High School students with disabilities. This was a collaborative venture with the Independent Living Resource Center of Jacksonville (ILRC) and took place on 10/30/2012. Two off-site career planning presentations for ILRC took place on 5/15/2012 and 10/25/2012. • Workforce Recruitment Program – we continued our annual collaboration to host a federal organization offering internship opportunities targeted to students with disabilities 10/16/12. In the weeks leading up to the interviews, the Associate Director facilitated two combo resume writing and interviewing workshops targeted to this population of students.

Action 9: Plan and collaborate with the Military Veterans Resource Center to develop a career program to meet the career development needs of UNF military/veteran students.

• Developed website resources and a career transition guide targeted to this population. • Established a relationship with the Aurora Foundation to help secure placement and funding for internship opportunities.

Career Discoveries Unit Vivian Senior continues to provide effective leadership to the Career Discoveries Unit. This unit primarily serves freshman and sophomore level students who are classified as “deciding and exploring” or juniors, seniors and alumni needing assistance with major and career selection. Paula Michael Dass, Career Counselor, is a major driving force in implementing this unit’s initiatives which includes a series of programs, events, activities, and services. This unit’s overall purpose is to engage and facilitate students’ effective progression through the career planning process. While budgetary constraints were impactful, the Career Discoveries team maintained a strong delivery of programs and services.

Table 7 reflects a very slight decrease when compared to last year. This decrease was due to the limited number of staff available to provide career counseling service hours due to decreased intern availability. During the 2011 – 2012 year, our unit maintained two graduate counseling interns and for the 2012 – 2013 year, we only maintained one intern for a portion of the year. These numbers do not reflect the number of students who scheduled appointments, but either cancelled or were “no shows”. Continued targeted marketing and outreach initiatives and additional staff should result in an increase next year.

Table 9 shows decreases when comparing programming between 2011-2012 and 2012-2013. We experienced a 20% decrease in the number of programs offered and an 18% decrease in the number of students served. While the Career Discoveries Unit continued with deliberate and targeted efforts to reach as many students as possible through customized programming covering career planning, career assessments and career exploration. Our total numbers were impacted by the decrease in staff members available to deliver services. During the 2011 – 2012 year, our unit maintained two graduate counseling interns and for the 2012 – 2013 year, we only maintained one intern for a portion of the year who was unable to be as active with outreach and programming. Our outreach included targeted participation in orientation sessions for incoming freshmen and various campus venues. Table 10: Individual Meetings

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

In spite of budgetary constraints and very limited staff, The Career Discoveries Unit continues with deliberate efforts to offer programs, services and resources targeted to freshman & sophomore level students as well as students at other levels needing assistance with major and career selection, career exploration and career planning. Our accomplishments were complimented by the assistance of Peer Advisors who were trained to conduct marketing and outreach programs. Our goal is to continue to reach and engage a broader range of students. Engaging students and encouraging their participation in career planning continues to create challenges and opportunities. Opportunities we have already seized include employing and effectively training student staff at the undergraduate and graduate levels. We will continue in our efforts to implement creative outreach and marketing strategies and programming with a particular focus on increasing students’ skills and knowledge with career and major exploration and effective decision-making. Career Counseling is a specialized and unique service offered and we want to further maximize student participation.

Table 11 shows a comparison of total student/alumni contacts (appointments, phone, email, and Career Wings resume critiques) for the past and the current years for the College of Arts and Sciences. Student marketing and outreach resulted in the need for additional assistance to meet the needs of COAS students. The S.T.A.R. Communication process (250+ students) required more administrative time to track student participation and completion than expected. Joanna Ale was hired as an OPS Employee to assist with Career Wings resume critiques due to the S.T.A.R. program and maternity leave for two staff members; 741 COAS students received resume reviews November 2012- April 2013. Rick Roberts, Director, conducted 194 COAS resume reviews as walk-in appointments in the main Career Services Office. Total student contact for the College of Arts & Sciences increased 6% for the 2012/2013 year.

Table 13 shows the number of students participating in the STAR Program; a series of seminars, workshops, and services designed to help students develop the skills needed to be successful following graduation. The 2012/2013 year resulted in 372 COAS STAR Certified students in comparison to 331 for AY 2011/2012. This represents a 12% increase in the number of STAR Certified students in comparison to last year. Note: The Number of Students Who Participated cannot be accurately compared due to the switch from Simplicity to CSO Interfase. An Activity Date parameter was added May 2012 to assure more accurate STAR tracking with CSO. Table 14: Student Registered for IDS 3949 COAS Elective Internship

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

Marketing and outreach initiatives during 2012/2013 have resulted in an increase of Arts and Sciences students seeking career assistance. The Office recognizes the need to make Dee Dee Wyckoff a Full-Time Liaison in order to more effectively meet the demand of the College. Valarie and Dee Dee will continue to network and collaborate with COAS faculty, staff, and student groups to enhance resources and programs that address students’ needs. To accomplish this, they will continue to meet with the Academic Advisers and assigned department faculty and chairpersons as needed. The S.T.A.R. Program will be promoted as a volunteer option, rather than as a requirement for the 250+ Communication intern and pre-intern students. This will reduce the administrative time needed to track S.T.A.R. completion and will consequently allow the COAS Liaisons to offer more one-on-one assistance for all of the 77 majors housed in the College of Arts and Sciences. Career Wings registration will continue to be a focus as a way to connect COAS students with employers. The promotion of internship experience will be a priority. The Liaisons will collaborate with departments seeking to prepare students for internships. They will continue to conduct class and student group presentations as a way to reach more students. Valarie will continue to manage the COAS Experiential Learning in the Liberal Arts course (Elective Internship). Continued effort will be made to assure that Career Services maintains quality service for all COAS students and alumni.

Appendix F: Employer contacts for Ms. Wyckoff decreased during the 2012-13 reporting year because Ms. Wyckoff was on maternity leave from Nov. 2012-Jan. 2013. Career Services also hired Brooke Hammon as the Employer Relations Coordinator in Jan. 2013 to contact employers regarding internships/employment for the College of Arts and Sciences.

Brooks College of Health Career Services The Career Liaison Program to the Brooks College of Health, Rachel Martin has maintained a strong relationship with students, faculty, and employers this year. She continues to present workshops in classrooms and provide one-on-one assistance to students. Relationships with the Doctor of Physical Therapy program continue to be strong as the liaison works with faculty and employers to present the Physical Therapy Job Fair. In addition, connections with Community Health, Exercise Science, RN-BSN, MPH, and prospective nursing candidates have continued to thrive throughout the past 5 years. Due to maternity leave, there was a slight decrease in the number of students seen and a larger decline in the amount of faculty Career Coordinator, Rachel Martin contacts.. In addition, the amount of alumni appointments have decreased due to policy changes in Career Services. Table 17: Brooks College of Health Counseling Appointments by Year

July 2011 – June 2012 419

July 2012-June 2013 385

Table 17 shows a comparison of counseling appointment for the last 5 years for the Brooks College of Health. The liaison to the college met with 385 students this year. This is an 8% decrease from 2011-2012. The decrease is likely due to a 3 month maternity leave. In addition, policy changes to alumni appointments contributed to a decrease in the amount seen since 2011-12..

Table 20 shows a comparison in Career Services presentations between 2008-2012. The amount of presentations in 2011-2012 increased by 22% from last year, reaching out to 625 more students than in 2010-2011. The Star Program is a series of seminars, workshops, and services designed to help students develop the skills needed to be successful following graduation. The decrease in numbers was due to changes in the way STAR is being offered. The focus for BCH has shifted from STAR completion to STAR participation. This allows students to complete the portions of the program that are the most meaningful to their career needs. 2008-2009 – STAR Program – Brooks College of Health – 102 graduates 2009-2010 – STAR Program – Brooks College of Health – 72 graduates 2010- 2011 – STAR Program – Brooks College of Health – 116 graduates 2011 – 2012 – STAR Program – Brooks College of Health – 107 graduates 2012-2013 - STAR Program – Brooks College of Health – 40 graduates

Table 21 displays a 69% decrease in the number of Career Services individual meetings with Brooks College of Health faculty, administrators, student group leaders and employers from 2011-2012 to 2012 -2013. The decrease was due to a 3 month maternity leave.

Future Directions This year, the decrease in numbers was largely due to a three month maternity leave. Otherwise, relationships with BCH students and faculty remain strong, as they continue to request presentations and refer students to Career Services. Because there is less of a need to increase already successful faculty connections, and because students are now requesting more employer contacts, the liaison will focus on strengthening employer relations for the upcoming year. In addition, the liaison will continue to develop resources for student to gain knowledge of the healthcare market and relevant employers within their field of study.

College Of Education And Human Services

Maria Castro continues in her role as the Career Coordinator and Liaison to the College of Education and Human Services. Since taking on this role she has developed and implemented many career programs, workshops and presentations. Topics continue to include: career planning, resume writing, job search strategies, networking strategies, and interviewing skills. Maria assisted 451 individual students from the College of Education and Human Services. She provided job search feedback via individual appointments, emails, phone calls, Interview Stream, and Career Wings to COEHS students. She conducted a total of 41 presentations to COEHS students. Through these presentations she has been able to reach an estimated total of 1458 students during the 2012-2013 Academic Year. During this academic year, Maria continues to provide the STAR Program in the College of Education and Human Services. She has been working with faculty members to present the STAR Workshop in classes. Maria has collaborated with COEHS Internship College Supervisors by providing the STAR Program to Education and Sport Management students. An estimated 430 students participated in STAR 1, 2, and 3 workshops which include the Resume and Interview Workshops and Resume Critiques during the 2012-2013 academic year. A total 55 students completed all five steps of the Star program and received their STAR Certification. The STAR program continues to be a major part of Sport Management Practicum courses. Students registered for these courses continue to be become STAR Certified by completing all components of the STAR program as part of these courses. In addition, all Sport Management internship students are also required to complete a Job Search Counseling appointment with Maria to discuss their Career/Academic goals prior to graduation. This helps these students to develop an effective job/academic strategy plan that they can implement prior to graduation. This year we have seen a significant improvement on our Education Job Fair based on the numbers of employers who attend the event. We continue reach out to employers and helped develop strong partnerships that are of great benefit to COEHS students. There was an increase in employer participation in the Education Job Fair from the previous academic year. Due to the increase in the number of employer’s and based on the surveys responses from last year’s event we decided to maintain the Job Fair at the at the Student Union location. We had nine school counties participate from throughout the Florida area and accept resumes from our students for potential employment opportunities. We had four Charters schools from Duval County also attend for the first time here at UNF. We had three employers hold on-campus interview right after the Education Job Fair. Orange County School

District interviewed 19 candidates and made 10 job offers the same day of the job fair to our students. This Education Job Fair was a very productive event both for our student and for the employers who attended the event. Students were very excited about the employment prospects generated by the Education Job Fair. Kelly Educational Staffing (KES) the official Duval County Schools District Substitute Teacher provider participated in 4 Information Session at Career Services this academic year. These Information Sessions were designed to inform students on how to become eligible substitute teachers for Duval County School District. According to a report shared by Celeste Hearon Lead Recruiter for (KES), through these Information Sessions and us partnering via Career Wings an estimated 146 UNF Students attended the Information and according to the most recent report from KES 22 have become active substitute teaches this past year. In addition to meeting the needs of the COEHS, Maria also participated in 17 Professional Development opportunities to continue her personal professional growth and development, and further sharpen her skills and abilities. Maria also continues in role as the Faculty Advisor to the Student National Education Association chapter in the COEHS. This student organization has been very active this past academic year. Continues to hold several general meetings throughout the academic year to plan events and discuss relevant issues in education. This many students took advantage the opportunity to attend various state conferences such as, NEA Student Connections Conference, and SFEA Student Leadership Conference and FEA Delegate Assembly. Again this year, SNEA was awarded Student Organization and Assistant Resources (SOAR) Grant worth $1500.00 to assist the organization with their marketing and recruiting efforts during the 2012-2013 academic year. Maria has been able to provide the students and the organization the leadership and support needed to help it thrive. Maria continues to be involved in and assist within the COEHS. She is often called upon to serve on various search committees. This year she was ask by the Women Center to be a Guest Panelist during National Hispanic Heritage Month as “Hispanic woman of Influence” Colleague often seek out her advice and expertise in matters of resume writing, job search skills and interviewing skills for both personal and professional matters.

Larry Daniel, Dean of the College of Education and Human Services had this to say about Maria’s work performance: “Maria’s work is integrated well with the work of the faculty and staff in the College of Education and Human Service to assure that students receive the full range of services offered by Career Development Services. She regularly provides counseling to prospective and active students, offers workshops and individual sessions on resume preparation and job interviewing skills, and guides students’ progress in completing the steps of the STAR program. In particular, she works very closely with faculty and students in the Sport Management and Teacher Education programs. COEHS faculty and staff feedback on Maria’s performance indicates that she is engaged effectively with the academic mission of the College and takes many steps to make her time and services available to students.” Regards, Larry

Table 25: The Star Program is a series of seminars, workshops, and services designed to help students develop the skills needed to be successful following graduation. There was a 29.5.0% decrease in the number of COEHS students who completed all five parts of the STAR Program in 2012-2013. This decrease was due to a decrease number of students who were cleared for practicum and who were able to secure an internship prior to the department deadline in order to register for practicum during the 2012-2013 academic year which impacted the STAR completion numbers.

This year began again with some difficult economic challenges for students, staff, and companies. Many students and alumni were laid off this year into a tight market. Companies had to cut back on staff; and therefore, recruiting and recruiting expenses including Employer Showcases. Staff had to continue to operate with smaller and tighter budgets. However, as the year went on, we began to see a shift. For the first time in 4 years, we saw more employers recruiting and hiring. These developments led to increases in employer participation in our Employer Showcases, as well as increases in employer meetings and appointments. While students and alumni still had to do more job searching and must continue to offer themselves in a more competitive way than in the past, we believe we have finally begun to see this abate a bit. We continued to see impressive growth in class presentations as we persistantly pursued faculty outreach and involvement in College committees and events.

Table 28 shows a comparison of counseling appointment for the last 5 years for the College of Computing, Engineering, and Construction. Career Services Representatives to the college met with 433 students this year. Although initially this seems to represent a decrease in the number of CCEC students with individual appointments, one must consider that alumni appointments were mostly handled by a different coordinator this year. If we consider last year’s numbers, a more equivalent number of appointments to represent this change would show as 498. This would show a continued trend of increased appointments over the past several years.

Table 31 This table shows that student appointments, while across the board, are largely appointments with Computing, Mechanical Engineering, and Electrical Engineering. This aligns with the relative populations of these programs. Table 32: College of Computing Engineering and Construction: STAR Program Participation

The STAR Program is a series of seminars, workshops, and services designed to help students develop the skills needed to be successful following graduation. This program was fully implemented for the College of Computing, Engineering, and Construction for the 2007-2008 school year. In 2012-2013, 308 students and alumni participated in various steps of the program and 1completed all 4 steps of the STAR Program. However, it was determined that we were inaccurately measuring the number this year. *As can be seen by the radical fluctuations in the number of STARs in process, Career Services has struggled to find an accurate and consistent way to measure this number. We have instituted a new system and hopefully will have very accurate numbers for the 2013-14 academic year. Table 33: Career Services Presentations and Workshops for the College of Computing Engineering and Construction 2008-2009 2009-2010 2010-2011 2011-2012 2012-2013 Number of Presentations

Table 33 shows a comparison in Career Services presentations of the past 5 years in the College of Computing Engineering and Construction. We saw another huge 24% increase in these numbers this year. This statistic continues to grow by leaps and bounds. This increase can be attributed to continuous outreach to CCEC faculty members and ongoing involvement in college committees and events. Table 34: Students Registered for Cooperative Education

Table 34 shows 25% decrease in number of students participating in CCEC co-op programs. While this number maintains our previous increase of two years ago, it is not as impressive as last year’s numbers. This number will most likely continue to fluctuate as CCEC investigates different, unique co-op opportunities in the coming years.

Table 35 displays a 2% increase in the number of Career Services individual meetings with College of Computing Engineering and Construction faculty, administration, student group leaders and employers. This increase can be mainly attributed to additional employer meetings, which went up tremendously this year. This was the first full year that the OPS Career Assistant added 10 hours/week of work. Therefore, the Liaison was able to dedicate an additional 10 hours/week to employer relations for this entire academic year. This increase would have been larger except for the meetings with on-campus constituents had decreased. This is mainly attributed to fewer organized meetings from the Dean’s office (their office eliminated: Wine & Cheese with the Dean and Student Officers Leadership Group).

Table 36 Shows a 12% increase in employer participation and a 5% increase in student participation for the CCEC Showcases. The large employer increase can be attributed to, again, the OPS Career Assistant having additional hours, which allowed the Liaison to spend additional hours on employer outreach and marketing. It should be noted that the Spring Showcase SOLD OUT. Due to space limitations in the room we could not permit and more employers to register for the event. When looking at the waiting list, it can be calculated that the employer participation would have increased by an incredible 30% if not for the space limitation.

Future Directions/Challenges Our challenge for the upcoming year will remain budgetary issues, both internally and with the companies who recruit from us. While we have seen a bit of relaxation with these issues, we are still nowhere near the levels of years past. We must proceed with caution. To combat this, we hope to continue to enact more employer relations activities by keeping the additional hours for our OPS staff, thus freeing the liaison to do more employer relations. Now that this process is in full swing, we are hoping to see continued good results. These economic conditions will also demand more competitive skill sets and more effective job search techniques. CCEC Career Services will continue to offer aggressive training for student job searchers.

Continuous Improvement: Department Goal #7: Seek additional resources, staffing, and funding to expand and increase career development services for UNF.

University Goal: #5 Secure fiscal, physical and technological resources aligned with the University’s mission and values.

• Division Goal 1: Enhance and cultivate an environment that encompasses body, mind and spirit pedagogy (holistic development) in which our University community ensures optimal student learning.

Action 1: Establish a baseline for Career Services programs and services via Graduate Surveys of three graduating classes. The surveys will enable us to understand post graduate activity, evaluate career development needs and develop more programs and resources to help students be successful after graduation. Scope: Approximately 6,500 prospects for calling, goal of 65% completion.

Seek non-recurring funding to contract with Ruffalo Cody, a consulting firm to conduct email and phone follow-ups for survey. Total Cost needed for 2013-2014: $21,300 (Timeline July 2013-June 2014)

Action 2: Collect data on graduating seniors for a better understanding of post-graduate activities of UNF students. The University of North Florida Office of Institutional Research conducts a “Cap and Gown” graduating student survey. For the Fall/Spring 2012 Survey, UNF had a response rate of 36%. The University of Florida (UF) has moved to a mandated survey and places a hold on students’ transcripts and diploma until they complete the survey. UF’s response rates were: May 2012 (optional): 50% August 2012: (mandatory): 99% Work with UNF Administration to approve recommendation for Graduating Senior Survey to become mandatory at UNF. (Timeline July 2013-June 2014). Action 3: Engage more students in their own career development- (staffing and outreach) Increase College of Arts and Sciences Career Coordinator, Diane Wyckoff from 28 hours per week to Full-time, 40 hours per week. (2013-14) For the largest UNF college (COAS), Career Services currently has one full-time Career Coordinator, Valarie Robinson and one part-time Coordinator, Diane Wyckoff (28 hours per week). More staff is needed to work effectively with the COAS Academic Departments and to help students develop important job search skills (resume writing, interviewing, etc.) to secure their internships and jobs. Total Cost needed for 2013-2014: $15,153 (Timeline July 2013-June 2014)

Outcome 1: A UNF Graduate Survey would provide us with a snapshot of the typical employment and graduate school patterns for our graduates. It will enable us to gain a better understanding of the post graduate activities of our graduates and ultimately develop career services to better assist our students as they graduate. Outcome 2: A “cap and gown” survey provides a snapshot of the post graduate plans of our students. It will provide important data on how many students have jobs lined up at graduation and also what their post graduate plans will be. This will also enable us to develop career programs and services to better assist our students as they move to the world of work. Outcome 3: Having a second Career Coordinator working 12 more hours per week to assist COAS students will enable us to connect with more students and faculty in that college. We can offer more career counseling appointment times, more workshops, and more career programs to help COAS students plan and implement their career plans.

Evaluation 1: We will seek and secure funding to contract with Ruffalo Cody, a consulting firm that specializes in graduate surveys, to conduct graduate surveys for three graduating classes. We should see a 60% response rate. Evaluation 2: For a successful return rate of over 90%, the Graduating Senior survey would need to be mandatory. A hold would be placed on students’ transcripts until they complete the survey. Evaluation 3: We should see at least a 10% increase in the number of COAS students receiving career development services.
