First Generation Student Career and Leadership Experience
Shaping the Future of Leadership
The First-Generation Student Career Leadership Experience has been created to provide First Generation Students with a career leadership experience that is specifically geared towards helping these incredible students position themselves for career leadership success in college and beyond!
With a lack of career conferences designed specifically to meet the needs of First-Generation Students, this transformational career leadership experience provides 400 plus First-Generation Students from across the country annually with a national conference specifically for them that has been designed to empower them with career
awareness, career readiness, and the professional/leadership skills needed to attain career success in college and beyond.
Over this three-days, First-Generation Students from across the country will not only network with other First Generation Students, hear from dynamic guest speakers who were First Generation Students, and learn from highly successful First-Generation Professionals from top tier organizations who have thrived and succeeded within their careers as First Generation Professionals, but more importantly, every program throughout the conference has been specifically designed to meet the career awareness, readiness, and development needs of First-Generation Students in an engaging, fresh, inspirational, and fun way.
True leadership is about creating a vision that inspires others to grow beyond their limits and crafting an environment where every voice is heard and valued. Together, we can build a legacy of empowerment and success.
- Dr. Joshua Fredenburg
