Request a Workshop

Thank you for supporting the SHIP Career Center. Before you complete the request form, please take a minute to review our guidelines.

Request Guidelines:

  • Workshops are offered both in person and virtual.
  • A minimum of three weeks advance notice is requested to allow time to arrange for a presenter. For immediate requests, please contact Center Director: vmbuchbauer@ship.edu.
  • Workshops outside of regular office hours (8 am- 4:30 pm, Monday- Friday) may be accommodated depending on staff availability but are not guaranteed. A minimum of 10 attendees is required for evening/weekend presentations.
  • Requests may be limited to one workshop per organization/course per semester.
  • Instructors: Please contact the Career Center prior to including a career assessment (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, Strong Interest Inventory, StrengthsQuest) in your course/syllabus as there are costs associated with these instruments that may necessitate payment by the requesting department.

Format Guidelines:

  • Schedule workshop to start at the beginning of meeting or class
  • Workshops run between 30 and 75 minutes depending on topic
  • Maximum two topics per workshop

Requestor Responsibilities:

  • Reserve a room (Career Center conference rooms may be available for groups of up to 20 students)
  • Provide AV equipment (most workshops require computer/internet access, projector, and speakers)
  • After you receive confirmation, communicate with the presenter by email about your goals for the workshop
  • Email presenter about any changes in location at least 24 hours in advance of the workshop

Note: If a workshop needs to be rescheduled once it has been confirmed, a new date will be accommodated only if the presenter’s schedule permits.
