Teachers and School Counselor Resources

Throughout the year, high school counselors and teachers can bring their students to campus for a college or career exploration event. The following events are open to any student looking to learn more about career opportunities, CECH programs, and the overall college experience. 

At each event, high school students can expect to hear from current college students, faculty, and staff about the resources available and what they can expect when they attend UC.

Read on to learn more about these campus events. 

CECH Connection is an opportunity for undecided students to learn about the majors in our college, career pathways, campus resources, and steps to complete the application. This event is also customizable, where you can request to hear from a specific campus department that is relevant to your students.

The Criminal Justice Academy is a learning opportunity for students interested in pursuing a career in the criminal justice industry. This event will discuss career choices, job growth, and outcomes and to hear from our alumni and current students on their experience in our program.

Teacher Academy is available to anyone interested in working toward a career in education. In this program, students will learn about the teaching experiences at each grade level (i.e., early childhood, secondary, middle, and special education). Students will also learn about the state requirements of becoming a certified teacher, in Ohio, while hearing about our current students' college experiences.

Future Educators Academy is an exploratory event for students interested in becoming teachers in urban and rural school settings. We seek to broaden our partnerships with local and regional school districts to provide a similar experience of Teachers Academy to schools that aren't a part of the initial program. 

The Information Technology field is producing more career opportunities every day. However, there aren’t enough educated IT professionals to fill the demand. IT Academy will allow students to learn about our IT degree, program concentrations, certificates, and accelerated degree options. Students will hear from our current students and learn from their experiences along with the faculty.

The sport industry is rapidly growing, nationwide and within Ohio. This program allows students to learn about the various career options in the sport industry and our Sport Administration undergraduate program. Students will have an opportunity to hear from current students, the alumni working in the field and faculty about their experiences in this program.

Our Exercise Science degree prepares students to work with general and special populations to improve their health and fitness regime through exercise. This program will lead to careers in health/fitness settings within commercial and medical fitness centers, non-profit facilities such as the YMCA, schools, universities, and recreational centers.
