Gies Professional Pathway Foundations: Pre-Arrival Course

Gies Professional Pathway builds into a learner's coursework the core competencies employers value most. It is an all-access pass that will give learners a competitive advantage throughout their career. We’ve designed GPP’s integrated framework to align, connect, and teach career readiness and professional development skills. Learners will understand how to translate what they’ve learned in the classroom into the language of employers.

We connect classroom learning to career success. We embed professional and career development into our core curricula in a cohesive way so that every learner has equal opportunity to secure the most sought-after internship and jobs. Learners develop communication, critical thinking, teamwork, and other essential skills through their coursework.

The Gies Professional Pathway Foundations Pre-Arrival Course is an online career-readiness course we have designed that introduces learners to the in-demand professional competencies that employers desire. This course provides learners with a foundation to maximize their time and experience at Gies, preparing them for long-term career success.
