KEY In Des Moines - Student Perspectives on the Future of Work

Description

KEY in Des Moines stands for Keeping Educated Youth in Des Moines.  It is a program connecting employers with area colleges and universities for workforce attraction.  Every other month the group hosts free educational sessions.  KEY in Des Moines is a division of the Urbandale Chamber of Commerce.

In our changing environment, it is important for employers to understand the future of work from a student's perspective.  Hear directly from three Central College students, each representing a different major and background on their thoughts about what attracts them to particular employers, what they are looking for in their future career and how they believe the world of work is evolving. All have unique perspectives on internships as well - each having completed at least one.

We invite you to submit questions ahead of the session by replying to this email.
