Earlier this year, Skyline College was awarded a grant to replicate the NOVA Job Center model, which has been successfully implemented in Sunnyvale and San Mateo. This new program will be offered as a part of SparkPoint and Career Services, complementing our current service offering by providing additional career counseling, workshops, resume assistance, interview preparation, job search support, and other resources for individuals seeking immediate employment. NOVA will be fully integrated into the SparkPoint program, thus all services are free of charge and open to both students and community members.
We are excited to announce that NOVA will be launching services on Monday, November 6, 2017 at the SparkPoint and Career Services Center (building 1, floor 2). Program registration, appointment booking and workshop schedules will be made available on launch day. Additional information about registration time will be provided next week.
If you have any questions with regards to the NOVA Job Center or you would like to refer a student or community member to participate, please contact the NOVA Program Services Coordinator, Kathleen Velasquez, at velasquezk@smccd.edu.
