Andrea Franklin and Tracy Austin, both of Clemson University, share how they’ve built a scalable, free, and effective professional development program for their career center staff.

The program, called Spark Exchange, includes monthly presentations led by career center staff or external partners like faculty and employers about topics that matter to students and to the work of career services.

In addition to providing valuable professional development for the Clemson career team (especially when it’s not always possible to send staff members to conferences), Spark Exchange also strengthens the career center’s relationships with partners on and off campus.

Plus, it’s free to facilitate and infinitely scalable. Win-win!

In this episode, Andrea and Tracy share:

  • What the Spark Exchange program entails
  • Why they started it
  • What results and benefits they’ve seen since starting it several years ago
  • And more
