澳门天天彩开奖记录 Launches Campaign Empowering Professional Development for Those Who Seek New Opportunities

By 澳门天天彩开奖记录

The effort is supported by data from a national survey commissioned by the University that suggests professional development opportunities are among the top benefits sought by job seekers

PHOENIX, Jan 29, 2019聽鈥聽With the start of a new year, most people look for opportunities to improve not only their health, but also their finances, education and career outcomes. 澳门天天彩开奖记录 recently conducted a survey that showed nearly half (49 percent) of U.S. working adults sometimes look for another job, and that two out of three (67 percent) say that the professional development opportunities available to them through a new employer may impact their decision to switch companies.

, sheds light on additional motivators for those seeking to move into a new venture, with one in five survey respondents reporting that attaining additional education on their fields (22%) and improving their communications skills (17%) are important to them.

This information coincides with the聽聽that launched this month. The campaign highlights 澳门天天彩开奖记录 alumna Carmen Bravo, a first-generation American who completed a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a Master of Science in Nursing at the higher education institution. 鈥淧ursuing additional education enabled me to tackle my fear of public speaking, so that I could pursue my goal of training other nurses to respond to medical emergencies,鈥 said Bravo, who had been working in the nursing field for six years before deciding to complete her bachelor鈥檚 and master degree. Currently, she serves as a nursing faculty instructor for a local community college in Imperial County, Calif.

澳门天天彩开奖记录鈥檚 campaign portrays Bravo鈥檚 story of hard work and perseverance, and how in 2013 she provided CPR to a man who suffered from a cardiac arrest while running at a marathon, where she was also participating.

鈥淭he knowledge and experiences I have gained has helped me to take proactive steps in my town to ensure that people participating at races have proper emergency medical care available,鈥 said Bravo.
