Federal Advisor Trainings
Join the Partnership for Public Service at one of six Call to Serve Federal Advisor Trainings for the 2010-11 school year. These full-day interactive professional development sessions will equip you and your colleagues with the knowledge and resources needed to effectively advise students on the changing federal job search and application process.

We have trainined more than 500 advisors in the past three years with 100% of participants reporting they would recommend the training to a colleague.

Who Should Attend?
Colleges and universities use Federal Advisor Trainings to learn effective advising strategies for students and alums interested in federal careers as well as to build public service champions across campus. Schools generally send 2-4 representatives who work with and advise students on career opportunities in a variety of capacities, although sending one representative is also beneficial. These cross-campus teams include representatives from Career Services, Employer Relations, Internship Programs, Academic Advisors and Faculty.

More Bang for Your Buck
The cost of the full-day training is $200 per participant and includes breakfast and lunch, 6.5 Continuing Education Units (CEUs), and materials and resources to bring back to your campus to train others.
