During this national conference, roughly 250 students attend a series of workshops on leadership, what to expect after graduating and on how to effectively begin a career. The students speak face-to-face with experienced HBCU alumni from many different professions and gain access to representatives from corporations, organizations and government agencies seeking to hire talented students.
