Students at John F. Ross CVI earn Networking certification
January 21, 2021
GUELPH, Ontario – Co-op students at John F. Ross Collegiate Vocational Institute recently had the opportunity to earn a Specialist High Skills Major (SHSM) certification in Networking.
On January 19, SHSM students in the co-op program participated in a virtual Networking 101 workshop that was presented by the Career Education Council.
During the workshop, students reflected on their network and possible connections they could make. They demonstrated this skill through multiple examples, including connection request letters and elevator pitches.
By the end of the workshop, students had learned how to professionally reach out to others, be clear with their requests and showcase their skills to the network.
This certification is one of many that students in the SHSM program have the chance to obtain during high school.
