Strengths Vocational Advisors (SVAs)

The Center approaches career advising from a strengths-based philosophy, guiding you to focus on who you are, what you enjoy, what you do best, and with that perspective, what you believe God is calling you to do with your life.  Through the CC& C you may schedule an individual advising session with faculty who are prepared to listen, question, encourage, and guide you in a discovery of your strengths and calling.  These advisors are especially helpful if you are undecided about a major, or would like to make a change in your major or minor.

  Alan Burns Department of Business
  Rob Debelak Center for Adult and Professional Studies
