Cotter Completes Career Program

Nearly 50 students from Bloomsburg University, Bloomsburg, participated in the professional development program at the Greenly Center in downtown Bloomsburg from Feb. 28 through March 1. More than 60 alumni and organizational partners volunteered during the event, both in person and virtually.

Matthew Cotter from Hummelstown was among the student participants. Cotter is a member of the Class of 2020 and is a marketing major.

During the two-and-one-half-day Career Intensive Boot Camp (CIBC), students learned the soft skills of professionalism through team building and personal branding exercises, alumni panels, employer presentations, and a networking lunch and etiquette dinner. Topics included everything necessary to ensure professional success after graduation, from navigating career paths and company culture to money management and job searching. Students also had opportunities to have their resume and cover letter reviewed and to practice interviewing and engaging in professional networking.
