BardWorks is a week-long workshop series held both in November and during the winter intersession in January.
The programs connect students to the Bard network while honing job search and professional skills. Hands on workshops, panels, small group discussions and individual mentoring sessions help students to become more confident in their skills as they begin the job search and encourages them to think about how their degree might aid them as they enter into career paths. This year, our D.C. program will take place from November 15 - 17, 2018 and the January session will take place from January 22-25, 2019.
Our Workshops
Ranging in scope, the workshop series includes skill-based workshops on resume writing, the job search, making a pitch for oneself, public speaking in the workforce and writing for business, and more. In order to introduce participants to a wide range of career paths, we bring in professionals who work in the arts, business, entrepreneurship, non-profits, government, publishing, and communications. Each student is paired up with a mentor working in the student’s field of interest (or related field) and receives advice on finding jobs and making connections in their field of interest.
