Welcome Faculty & Associates!

At Post, faculty and associates play a vital role in helping students turn education into action. Every interaction—whether in class, on campus, or in conversation—helps students build confidence and career readiness.

The Career Development team is here to collaborate with you: bringing real-world learning into the classroom, connecting students with opportunities, and supporting your own professional growth. Together, we’re preparing students for their first career steps—and every opportunity that follows.

Faculty and associates help students see how learning today leads to opportunity tomorrow. Even brief moments of reflection or discussion can spark powerful insight.

Try:

  • Linking assignments to NACE Career Readiness Competencies
  • Adding short career reflections or resume-based activities
  • Highlighting how course projects build real-world skills
  • Inviting alumni or professionals to share career perspectives

We’re here to help you design easy, high-impact integrations for any course or program.

Let’s co-create something impactful: career@post.edu

Partner with the Career Development team to bring career readiness directly into your courses. We offer short, interactive presentations and workshops.
