The Lessons From Abroad
Returnee Conference: Los Angeles
is designed to offer study abroad returnees the opportunity to reflect
on their recent international experiences, connect with other study
abroad alumni, network with professionals from international
organizations, and gain important skills for continual learning and
application in their future career and academic paths. The keynote
presentation will offer insight into how study abroad translates
socially, academically, and professionally. There will also be an
“Opportunities Fair” of internationally-focused
organizations, various panel discussions and workshops on
resume-building, graduate schools, career and volunteer opportunities,
job interviewing and more!
Conference highlights include:
- Meeting other recent study abroad
returnees from all over Southern California
- Hearing from dynamic and motivating
keynote speakers
- Learning how to talk about your newly
acquired global skills in a job interview
- Discovering how you can work or study
abroad after graduation
- Networking with professionals working in
internationally-focused jobs
- Staying connected to and sharing stories
about your study abroad experience
This is a great opportunity to network with
other students and professionals. We ask that you dress business
casual and bring several copies of your resume.
