Career Programs: Net Impact Club partners with the Career Management Center (CMC) and the Center for the Advancement of Social Entrepreneurship (CASE) to host in-depth workshops and pop-up events about careers and professional opportunities in the social impact and sustainability sector. These events are designed to help students prepare for recruiting and understand industry trends that are critical for impact-oriented career paths.
Career Day: Net Impact organizes a virtual Career Day, which is designed to expose students to companies, organizations, and alumni across the impact sector.
Lunch-and-Learns: Lunch-and-learns are a series of workshops focused on different parts of the social impact and sustainability ecosystem.
