Mapping Coursework to Career Connected Skills

In this session, we focus on turning coursework into career-connected projects by naming the skills, tools, and deliverables employers value. We will explore how course outcomes can be mapped to established competency frameworks and typical occupational tasks, enabling assignments to be labeled with “career signals” students can carry forward, including suggested artifacts, concise resume language, and brief reflections that link classroom work to workplace expectations. Watch to see concrete examples at the course and program levels, practical mapping methods, and guidance on communicating career signals to students and employers.
