Career Services offers career assistance and resources to all campus, online and education center students, and alumni, through a variety of platforms. Students have convenient access to resources and can attend events in person or remotely. This allows those with demanding work schedules, family responsibilities and even those serving in our military to have access to the events and information.
Career Services provides the resources and assistance to allow both traditional and non-traditional students to work towards their individual career goals. Saint Leo’s core values are intertwined in the resources; where each student can create and follow the career path best suited for them.
