History
In conjunction with our student chapter of the Society of American Foresters (SAF), we created ATCOFA Career Connections. Our goal for this program is to provide a platform for our students to reach out to employers in their field of choice, for guidance and /or advice about their field as well as a realistic view of employment. This will benefit our students by exposing them to a glimpse of day to day life in the field, guidance on professional development, and confidence of their career choice. Employers will gain insightful experiences through this program with the development of their personal and professional growth, advancement of their leadership and coaching style, and engagement of potential young employees. By mentoring a younger generation, employers will be able to help bridge the gap between varied workplace values and styles.
