Career Fair Workshop "Finding a Job or Starting a Business? They're Closer than You May Think!"

Whether you’re actively looking for work or thinking of starting your own business, the process of understanding what a potential employer or prospective customer find valuable is critical to your success. 
 
Ultimately, true value is determined by the buyer of products and services in any transaction.  Finding and fulfilling that need for value is the basis of steady employment or a successful business.
 
Come to our seminar on understanding the value proposition in the employment market and in the business arena to increase your chances of out-competing your rivals for that new job or business opportunity.
