Come see me, SaShay Butler, M.Ed, and Teresa Caplinger Spaeth, PhD, MBA discuss “Hacking College” and our twist on a popular term tomorrow morning at American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U): “Seeing the world of hidden #jobs is important for #students for a number of reasons: First of all, it opens up opportunities for #experientiallearning at often-overlooked #employers. Further, it shows students that the world is #multidisciplinary and helps them see how their #skills transfer across different lines of work or different sectors of the #economy, giving them the ability to shift and #innovate. Much of the #college-to-#career conversation focuses on big, popular industries, like health care, finance, tech, and so on. By widening the pool of possible employers, students might be able to understand how they can tie their studies in typically undervalued disciplines like anthropology, history, or literature to a variety of roles out there. “Most #undergraduate students, who often enter college with a major-equals-job mentality, aren’t really introduced to this way of approaching the world of work — not even at their own institutions, which have their own hidden jobs. … And people who guide students aren’t necessarily cognizant of the them, either. One of our peer reviewers — who, from references in the critique, seemed to come from the world of #advising — was surprised by the notion of hidden jobs. “‘This term at once called attention to a key deficiency of what #careerservices offices are able to offer students,’ the reviewer wrote, ‘and reminded me of something I had never focused on, the fact that so many people are employed in “granular” sub-sub-fields that aren’t on career service’s radar….’” Read more about our twist on the common term #hiddenjobmarket in The Edge!: https://lnkd.in/eJZmtdj3 Hack your college!: https://a.co/d/5SiOoqe Champlain College The Chronicle of Higher Education #highered #highereducation #universities
