The Counseling and Student Development Division provides career planning support services through its Career Resource Center as a component of the career counseling and academic advising processes.
The primary purpose of the Career Resource Center (CRC) is to provide the variety of career related resources necessary to assist students in planning for a career after college. MCC Counselors and CRC staff provide support services to students using the Center. In addition, Counseling and Advising Faculty refer students to the Center to assist those Faculty in guiding students through career assessment and career exploration. Students are also encouraged to visit the Center to explore the world of careers.
The center provides assistance as students explore and select a career, as they research transfer colleges, and to help them develop the skills needed in the 21st century workforce with resources and assessment for students, alumni and members of the community. The center also serves as an instructional lab for faculty who wish to bring their class for career-related purposes.
