Statements & Testimonials
Shelley, helped me set very clear career goals, not lose my focus and motivation. I have been promoted and offered a new opportunity that would not have happen if I had not taken the program.
Wow! Shelley I was so confident during the interview. I knew how to answer the questions because I knew my strengths. Thanks!!!
When we started to work together (end of freshman year), I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up. You helped me explore different majors and showed me other career paths that I didn´t know existed.
I never thought I would graduate from college; forget about doing it in 4 years. You had me on a plan in 2 weeks. I know I can graduate and very close to 4 years!! You focused me, encouraged me and BELIEVED IN ME!!! Thank you.
