Career Explorations Career Explorations
Still searching for that ideal career?  Career Explorations main purpose is to help you identify your ideal career pathway based on simple interests surveys.  Once your career pathway is determined users can view career videos and learn which skills, interests, and abilities are required to be successful in that career. 

Hot Careers Hot Careers
When deciding on career path it's a good idea to consider all of your options. So don't limit your career options just because you think the job you want is meant for a person of a specific gender.  Hot Careers gives you a look at the non-traditional careers options offered at UHCC.

Networking Networking
It is estimated that the average person knows about 250 people.  And each of those people knows, in turn, another 250 or so people.  This means that for each new person you meet, you gain access to a potential pool of 62,500 people that could offer you that perfect job. This exercise will help you identify your potential network and provide ways to improve it.
