Key to career success is acquiring the necessary knowledge, skills and credentials to advance in your chosen field or discipline. This exercise guides you through a process of examining your academic experience up to this point in time and forecasting what future academic experiences you will need to consider as you develop professionally. PART ONE: Past/Current Coursework and Academic Experiences All of your courses potentially have provided a solid foundation for your educational development. However, on the table below, list key courses (descriptive names not numerical listings such as MGMT 301) that are relevant to the career position/field/industry you seek. These courses may have provided you with specific knowledge, experiences or skills that would be useful for you as a professional. These courses may come from your majors,

minors, concentrations, as well as other courses such as electives or certification programs. Add more rows or subtract rows as needed.

Are there certain electives, concentrations, or minors that you should consider taking because they would provide you with additional knowledge, skills and experiences for your field of interest? If so, add them into your above planning. If you cannot fit them into your degree and graduate by your targeted goal date, would you consider staying for an additional semester? Consult with your Academic Advisor to make sure you correctly are interpreting your degree information.
I can not fit anything else into my schedule, and would not consider staying longer.

What certification programs and professional association would be important for you to obtain and join to enhance your professionalism?
Certification of Entrepreneurship

To advance in your field, will you need to obtain an advanced degree and when would be the best time to pursue that (directly after earning your undergraduate degree or after you gain professional experience in your field)?

I think it would be best to get it right away after getting an undergraduate degree while you are still set in the school mindset. Once someone gets out of that mentality, it might be hard to focus back in on school.
