My name is Sheila Carr and I am the Director of Career Development Services for Westwood College. I would like to extend this invitation for you to attend our 2008 Program Advisory Committee meeting for the Visual Communications degree program on Thursday, March 27th from 11:30AM – 1:30PM at the Westwood College Fort Worth campus. We would appreciate your attendance and service on our committee.

The Westwood College Program Advisory Committee is comprised of leading professionals in the field of Construction Management, who represent leading corporations within the Fort Worth/Dallas area and are highly regarded within their fields. The purpose of this meeting is to evaluate and get feedback from you, the professional, as to industry standards and preferences for those graduates coming into your field as well as to review our curriculum and provide comments as to industry trends along with program suggestions to improve the development of future graduates for hire by local employers. Your input as an industry professional would be of great value. Lunch will be served, so please let me know of any special dietary requests.

We are committed to providing our students with a quality, career-focused program that will prepare them for a successful future. As part of our PAC team, you will be helping Westwood College develop and maintain industry-relevant programs that are designed to enhance each graduate’s employment potential, teach teamwork, and build skills that promote life-long learning. The committee meets twice a year and some of the topics we will be discussing include:

What technical, business, and/or soft skills are employers seeking?
What technology or software is in high demand? In what depth should these graduates be trained in these areas?
What is the projection for the future employment in this field?
Introduction and professional development with industry peers.

If for any reason you have questions or comments, I would be delighted to hear from you. Call my direct line or send me an e-mail. Please RSVP using the information below. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Sheila Carr, Director of Career Development Services
