Career Services in South Africa Webinar | IFC Education Vitae

Career Services shape how graduates contribute to society by providing a vital link between work and study. In countries like South Africa, funding for these services is limited, so it's especially important for career service champions to take action within their universities.
In this webinar, we will explore:
- How educators are preparing students for today's workplace?
- What options are available to career service champions in SA?
- Recommendations and resources for enhancing career services
