Volunteering is an excellent way to gain the skills and experiences you need to reach your career goals as well as making a difference locally and globally by volunteering for a cause you believe in.
Every year Careerspace coordinates the annual Volunteer Expo where students can access information and have discussions with volunteer organizations in-person. The event runs every fall and is open for all students to attend.
