Whether you are just beginning to think about careers or already have a sense of the direction you’d like to pursue, we can help.

CCI Operating Updates

The staff at the Center for Careers and Internships plan to work primarily remotely per Vermont and College guidelines designed to safeguard student health. While we may not physically be on campus, the CCI will continue to “meet you where you are”—just virtually—whether you are working remotely from home, in your dorm room, on Battell Beach, eating lunch in Atwater, or walking to the Knoll.

Take advantage of our full range of support and resources with a variety of online tools. Engagement with alumni and employers via our exceptional programming will be as dynamic and wide-ranging as ever! Students on leave this semester have full access to our advising, programming, Handshake and Midd2Midd.

Those following us on Instagram and Facebook this summer saw the news about our move from ADK to enable its conversion to student housing. More on our next location soon! Meanwhile, we so look forward to greeting you all in person as we can safely do so.
