Welcome to our Community for Online Students & Distance Learners
Taking classes online or from a distance can give you the flexibility to build your education around work, family, and other responsibilities—but it can also make career preparation feel less connected to the traditional college experience. You may not spend much time on campus, attend in-person events, or have the same opportunities to casually connect with professors, employers, and other students. You may also be wondering how to gain professional experience, build a network, or access career resources from wherever you are.
The good news: you don’t have to be on campus to build a strong career. Career readiness can happen through online experiences, virtual networking, class projects, your current job, internships, professional organizations, and the connections you make along the way.
This space is designed to help you connect your education and existing experiences to your career goals, discover opportunities that work with your schedule and location, and build professional skills from wherever you are. Whether you’re completing your degree entirely online, taking classes from a distance, working while you study, or balancing school with other responsibilities, you’ll find resources to help you understand your options and take your next career step.
