The presentation, entitled "Using Language Immersion to Accelerate Career Development for a Diverse Population,” detailed the work this unique cross-functional team did to pilot the Career and Communication Accelerator course last summer. With their colleagues in Marketing, Admissions, Advising, Recruitment, Media and Advertising, and Creative Services, they are the recipients of the 2022 Team Impact Award, which honors "an SPS administrative team that successfully implemented a new initiative, program, or project this academic year that positively impacted SPS stakeholders beyond their teams."
