CamelLink

To enhance and conceptually integrate the advising and developmental processes associated with academic and career planning, the Office of Career and Professional Development utilizes a Career Services Management System (CSM) offered through Symplicity, CamelLink. Through CamelLink, students integrate their self-assessments and workshop outcomes with their academic planning by using platforms and features within the system to manage and document requirements for funded internship eligibility, as well as other academically related materials. 

CamelLink Features

•     Calendar and Events systems that allow students to find the availability of and schedule appointments with any of their Advisers (including Career, the Academic Resource Center, the Office of Volunteers for Community Service, and the Academic Center Certificate programs), sign up for workshops and information sessions, and be regularly informed of events of interest.

•     An Advising Notes feature, that allows advisers, including Faculty Advisers, to record history of meetings with students and which are accessible to all advising staff as part of a College-wide team advising effort. These notes can contribute to the overall quality of a multi-pronged approach in terms of faculty, community programs, the College Internship Program job search, graduate school and fellowship advising that takes place throughout the undergraduate years.

•     A Documents library that advisers and students can use to select and upload documents reflecting completion of the College Internship Program requirements, and their academic, internship and co-curricular experiences.

•     Profile information that allows students to select potential career and academic interests that then allows targeted information and opportunities to be sent directly to them from the system.

•     A Resource Library that serves as a repository for departmental resources and handouts. There is an extensive collection of career exploration and job and internship search resources that are easily accessible to all students.
 

•     A Jobs/Internships/Volunteer opportunities database that gives students access to outside employers, internship sponsors and community organizations nationwide. This database is easily accessible and searchable with links to appropriate application procedures.
