Join the Strategic Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE) for a virtual lunch and learn, "Beyond Recruiting: Building Lasting Employer Partnerships," on Tuesday, April 13, at 12 p.m. ET via Zoom. This session will be presented by Cordelia Schack-Edmiston from the University of Cincinnati.
Strong employer partnerships are built through trust, communication, and shared goals -- not just recruiting. In this session, you'll learn how the University of Cincinnati's College of Cooperative Education & Professional Studies has created a relationship-centered approach to industry engagement through intentional employer onboarding, partner management, and ongoing collaboration.
Discover practical strategies for engaging employers beyond recruitment, including advisory boards, classroom partnerships, career programming, and other meaningful campus connections. You'll leave with ideas you can apply to build stronger partnerships that support student success and workforce development.
