Road Trips to the Real World

Get a first-hand glimpse into the professional world by visiting companies during winter break through Road Trips to the Real World.  This series of employer site visits is scheduled for January 4 – 15, 2010.  If you are searching for a job or internship, or just want to explore careers, you should make plans to participate. 

 

Attending a site visit will provide you with an opportunity to network with employers.  Site visits may include panel discussions of employees and/or interns, site tours, or networking sessions.  A listing of this year’s participating companies can be found below.

 

Any Ithaca College student is eligible to register (note that you must provide your own transportation).  Registration will be available online starting at 10:00am on Tuesday, December 1, however you may view information about the visits before that time at http://www.eace.org/committees/roadtrips.html.   As Road Trips to the Real World is sponsored by Ithaca College and the Eastern Association of Colleges and Employers (EACE), students from most colleges & universities in the Northeast are eligible to register on a 1st come, 1st served basis.  So, for the best selection, make sure you get online on the 1st!  Please note that this year’s programs require a fee of $5 per site.  

 

Once registered for a site, students will receive instructions to RSVP, prior to December 14, to confirm they plan to attend. As always, no-shows and late cancellations are a poor reflection on both yourself and Ithaca College, and therefore are not acceptable.
