Career Services
The Career Services Department at Central Florida College can provide assistance to currently enrolled students and graduates. Services of the department include job search assistance and guidance to the students and graduates as they seek employment in their chosen fields.

Students attending Central Florida College are required to complete all paperwork as directed by the Career Services Department and to participate in an Exit Seminar as a graduation requirement. This should be completed prior to the start of an externship if applicable, but in all cases, no later that 30 days prior to the last scheduled day of class.

Prospective employers may request training-related information about students they could consider hiring. The student's academic and attendance patterns, as well as observable professional behavior are factors that may be considered by prospective employers. It is, therefore, the student's responsibility to maintain high personal and professional standards in each of these areas in order to enhance future career opportunities.

Recent graduates and students approaching graduation receive first priority for job search assistance services.
