time during the conference to talk with them about their products or services and
thank them for their continued support of CDPI.
This conference also would not be possible without the support of our conference

Breakout Session 1 (9:45-10:30 AM)
Giving Students a Career EDGE Across Indiana University
Dr. Kathy Johnson
How to build a framework for integrated academic and career advising that begins before orientation
and extends through employment? It’s all about the EDGE! By using Exploration, Development,
Graduation, and Employment (EDGE) as a framework for scaffolding learning outcomes and delivering
developmentally appropriate career support, we are helping our students to achieve postbaccalaureate success. Learn how a glimmer of an idea and a powerful acronym led to an externally
funded initiative extending across seven campuses that will impact thousands of students.
ROOM: Theodore Roosevelt
Reorienting Students’ Professional Development from Classroom to Corporate
Boardroom: Lessons to be Learned from the COMPASS Curriculum at IU’s Kelley
School of Business
Jessica Sremanak, Nichole Alspaugh Williams, Shelli Yoder, Emily Dutton
The Kelley School of Business undergraduate program developed the three-year COMPASS curriculum in
response to criticism regarding the value of a business major. In a three-course series, COMPASS brings
together the essentials of academic advising, career coaching, personal enrichment and recruitment.
In COMPASS 1, students explore and better understand their values as an essential element of career
decision-making. In COMPASS 2, students focus on teamwork, analyzing how to be a productive and
successful contributor of a team. During COMPASS 3, students apply the knowledge gained in 1 and 2 to
understand and articulate their leadership style, maximize their future success, etc.
This four-person presentation of faculty who teach the curriculum will discuss these innovative
approaches, interactive platforms to deliver the foundational information, student and employer
feedback, success stories, and impact of the curriculum.
ROOM: Pat Summit/John Wooden
The Internship and Beyond: How LHSI Connects Work, Career Services, and
Post-Graduation Success
John Fierst, Ethan Joll, Anjali Prakash, Sharifah Kyazike, Kami Walters
In this session, participants will learn about the benefits of the Life Health Sciences Internship (LHSI)
program at IUPUI and how LHSI improves employment opportunities for students after graduation. LHSI
places sophomore and junior undergraduate students with paid internships in life and health-related
clinical or research positions. The program is intentionally designed to engage students in the IUPUI
community and promote collaboration with campus career services and other related resources to
enhance professional development. We will discuss transferable skills developed before, during, and after
the internship, and the opportunities LHSI offers for students after they complete the program. We will also
present graduation and employment statistics from the first five years of the program. Following the
presentation, participants will be invited to ask questions to a panel of LHSI Intern Ambassadors – former
interns who now work as assistants to the Program Directors, and a member of the LHSI Alumni Council, a
new student organization designed to keep alumni of the program connected with each other and with
current interns.
ROOM: Jesse Owens

Breakout Session 2 (10:45-11:30 AM)
Utilizing the CDPI Grant Program: What I Have Learned
Rachel Landis
When I was a graduate student and intern in the office of Career Services at IPFW, I wanted to learn as
much as I could about the field of career counseling. After learning about the CDPI grant program, I
applied in order to receive assistance in funding my MBTI/Strong certification. I knew that when I started
applying to positions out of grad school, I would be a competitive candidate by bringing funding to the
table. This presentation will share my process of applying to the grant, and what I have learned so far in
my MBTI training. Since most career professionals hold this certification already, I will focus on newer trends
in the training such as how MBTI preferences can apply to Millennials, our traditional students on campus.
ROOM: Theodore Roosevelt
It Takes a Village—Collaborative Efforts among Career Services, Academic
Departments, and the Campus Community
Katie Cheney, Liz Ferris, Dr. Chera LaForge
Effectively supporting students in the career exploration, planning and placement process must be a
combined effort from various stakeholder groups. At IU East, the School of Humanities and Social Sciences
has worked closely with the Office of Career Planning and Placement to provide seamless transitions for
students as they move toward life after graduation. For students in liberal arts majors to be ready to enter
the world of work, career development efforts must be built into the academic curriculum and the
advising partnership. Both professional staff and faculty members play a critical role in preparing students
for post-graduate success. An integral step in the process must also be including community leaders and
business owners in the process. This presentation will outline strategies for effective collaboration, specific
projects for consideration, and the results achieved so far at IU East. Participants will be asked to consider
current efforts on their campus and how these efforts could be made more collaborative, and will
engage in small group brainstorming to develop an action plan for their respective institutions. The
presenters have shared this information in various presentations and settings, including other conferences
such as the All IU Advising Conference and the Academic Chairperson’s Conference.
ROOM: Pat Summit/John Wooden
The Need for Financial Wellness Education as Part of a Well-Rounded Career
Services Program
Phil Schuman, Morgan McMillan
Indiana University established the Office of Financial Literacy in 2012 for two major reasons: 1. To educate
students on personal finance and help them build the skills they need to be successful stewards of their
finances; 2. To lower the amount of student borrowing at Indiana University by helping students
understand the impact that student loans can have on their lives during/after college. Indiana University,
through the Office of Financial Literacy, provides financial education to its students via a required 60minute financial literacy piece for all first-year students, for-credit courses, a website moneysmarts.iu.edu),
podcast (“How Not to Move Back in With Your Parents”), and one-on-one appointments and group
presentations with a trained student. The Office of Financial Literacy has worked with Career Services to
develop presentations that help students understand their future financial lives and how to navigate their
finances while in college. Just as important, the Office of Financial Literacy helps students understand the
impact student loans can have on their lives. While part of the mission is to alleviate some of the levels of
debt students are accruing, from a career perspective, the office exists to help students pursue careers in
their intended major(s), instead of letting their debt levels influence their career paths. Through this
presentation, attendees will learn about Indiana University’s Office of Financial Literacy and its initiatives.
The presenters will discuss the success of the program and how they have been able to partner with
Career Services and other campus offices to develop materials that will enable graduates to have the
sound financial skills that will improve their chances of success.
ROOM: Jesse Owens

Breakout Session 3 (1:15-2:00 PM)
Under-Represented Students and Career Development: Partnering Early for
Success All Four Years
Anne Rowland
This presentation will discuss the Groups program, a state initiative at Indiana University serving
under-represented students their first year, and its partnership with career services on campus. We will
briefly go over the importance of serving under-represented students, how to reach out and partner with
these groups, outreach presentations for these groups, and suggestions for further programming after
freshman year. To conclude the presentation, the audience will share how their organization connects
with this population.
ROOM: Theodore Roosevelt
Resume Express and Drop In’s
Jing Han
This presentation shares methods the IU Kelley School of Business Undergraduate Career Services has
successfully implemented to handle the high volume of resume reviews by students, and provides support
for students without appointments when they need that resume at the last minute. Included in this session
are the ways that Kelley markets these services to students.
ROOM: Pat Summit/John Wooden
Use Staff Time Wisely by Assessing Readiness for Career Decision Making
Darrin Carr, PhD, Carol Kostrzewsky
This “hands on” session will cover how to use three FREE tools to assess readiness for career decisionmaking that can save you time and spare your student’s frustration. These include Holland’s My Vocational Situation, Peterson’s Career Decision Space Worksheet, and Zener & Schnuelle’s Occupational
Alternatives Questionnaire. Each can be used to more quickly understand problem complexity and the
student’s capability for solving the problem, thus enabling you to provide the right kind and extent of
services.
ROOM: Jesse Owens
#CapitalCareers
Breakout Session 4 (2:15-3:00 PM)
The CONNECTION Between Higher Education and Early Childhood Education:
Fascinating Discoveries that Lead to Student Compatibility!
Rose Ellen Adams
This presentation will provide a broad overview of the current state of early childhood education, trends
we are seeing in the field, why early childhood is so important to future learning, recent discoveries on
brain development across the life span, and how that information relates ultimately to our students in
higher education environments and their employability. The session will also include resources and
information which will be easy to use and valuable in assisting students to overcome obstacles related to
child care/early education, a challenge that impacts many students today and can contribute to falling
retention rates. Session attendees will leave understanding how advocating for a stronger early
childhood system will lead to more students coming to our campuses with fewer socio-economic stressors,
better academic preparation, and improved ability to enter the workforce.
ROOM: Theodore Roosevelt
Bridging the Education/Industry Gap through Work-Based Learning
Collaborations
Janet Boston, Nicholas Hoagland, Amy Marsh, Randy Polston, Brad Rhorer
The reverberation of the “skills gap” can be felt in every region of the state, and it’s arguably a direct
result of another gap – a knowledge gap between education and industry. Employers are concerned
about the career-readiness of the emerging workforce, and schools are busy keeping up with industry’s
ever-changing talent needs. What’s the answer? Business/Education collaboration surrounding workbased learning is a win-win-win for employers, schools and students. Students apply their classroom
knowledge in a real-world work setting. Schools put students on successful career pathways. Employers
train their emerging workforce. The Indiana Chamber of Commerce recently released the findings of its
employer survey. Of the 532 participants, most expressed a desire to be more involved with schools in
several ways, including internships. These findings are in line with the state’s workforce development plan,
Align Engage Advance, which in part seeks to connect students with work-and-learn opportunities. Our
panel will consist of employers and college/university leaders discussing their models for work-based
learning and collaboration, as well as representatives from the Indiana Chamber to outline key findings
from the 2014 employer survey and how Indiana INTERNnet can serve as a resource.
ROOM: Pat Summit/John Wooden
The Answers Within—Using Solution-Focused Questions in Career Advising to
Help Students Achieve Success with Their Professional Goals
Marcy Carlson
Solution-Focused questions are very useful in career advising and go deeper than open- or closed-ended
questions. They are goal-directed and utilize the student’s own strengths. They seek to empower the
student to find their answers from within themselves. By doing so, the students not only have a starting
point for change but also have more buy-in, confidence, and motivation because, essentially they came
up with the answer themselves. These solutions are generally more stable and long-lasting in nature;
creating real change for the student in the direction they want to go with their careers. There are five
main types of Solution-Focused questions: Solution-Defining, Past Success, Exception-Finding, Miracle, and
Scaling. They are particularly useful when a student is stuck or needs a Plan B or parallel plan. SolutionFocused questions have their roots in family therapy but are easily adapted to use in career counseling
with much success. The concept of Solution-Focused questions has been outlined during presentations at
meetings within our school but never presented at a formal conference. We use these questions with
students in career advising sessions in our office.
