On Saturday, November 15th, 2014, Penn Foster will be hosting an All Student Meet-up. Current students, alumni, or those thinking of enrolling, all are welcome to attend!
This is a chance for you to meet your instructors, classmates, the alumni network, and Penn Foster employees in person and in a social setting.
From 10:00AM - 3:00PM ET at Penn Foster Headquarters, 925 Oak St., Scranton, PA 18515, we have some great things lined up.
Program Breakout Sessions: Interested in one of our Allied Health, Veterinary Technician, or Early Childhood Education programs? Join one of these breakout sessions where instructors will cover and answer everything there is to know about studying and entering the respective fields.
Career Workshop: Companies may receive over 75 applications for one position. How do you make yours standout among the rest? Get some tips from our experts! In this workshop, you will learn what information you need to include in your resume and cover letter as well as what should be left out. You will also learn the importance of having a clear, detailed, and organized resume to make you rise above the rest!
Photo Ops: Need to spice up your LinkedIn or Student Community profile picture? Have your head shot professionally taken by our in-house photographer.
To keep you energized, refreshments and snacks will be provided. We'll also take you on a tour of HQ so you can see all the behind-the-scenes stuff. We'll have a social hour for games and networking. And just for coming, you'll walk-away with an official Penn Foster meetup t-shirt!
