Skills Seminars and Workshops
The Career Development office offers an evolving series of seminars and workshops which emphasize the enhancement of transferable and professional skill sets, and will contribute to long-term success. Our goal is to help students build and capitalize on their knowledge and abilities within increasingly specialized and challenging professional roles.
Usually within one week following delivery, students can access all presentation materials in PDF format by logging in to the OCAD U Career Development Blog:
Seminars and workshops cover a range of topics, and are open to all students and new graduates (subject to room capacity).
