Interlocking gears with a word stamped onto them: career, potential, skill, education, ability, goal, and vision.

Join Stephanie Leeper, Career Connected Curriculum Liaison, for an engaging Community of Practice focused on integrating career-connected and experiential learning into your courses! Explore practical strategies to infuse your curriculum with career-related skills and experiences that boost student success—helping them stand out in today’s competitive job market. Learn how classroom-based experiential learning strengthens career competencies while aligning with culturally responsive teaching and universal design for learning (UDL). Share insights, exchange resources, and collaborate with colleagues as we draw from the research in Building New Pathways From the Humanities to Careers and Embedding Career Learning Across Curriculum (Jobs for the Future). This opportunity is open to all faculty, with a special emphasis on those teaching general education courses. Let’s build stronger connections between classroom learning and real-world career pathways—together

This community of practice will meet in person in spring term in GHL 205 on Clark's main campus. We will meet every other Friday (5 meetings total) from 10 am to noon.

Adjunct faculty will receive an $800 stipend upon completion. Full time faculty are eligible to apply for 20 hours of PPAC (1 full credit) upon completion.
