Career Champions are VTOP-trained faculty and staff members who have participated in professional development to mentor students on their paths from college to career. They weave career readiness into classes, advising, and co-curricular life, creating a culture where every student can plan, prepare, and confidently pursue opportunities.
Radford University’s Career Champions are a good resource for navigating career exploration and preparation.
