Participation in the CollegeCareerCorps® provides many benefits to colleges and universities. With students working in major organizations, colleges and universities can now have greater access into the organizations and are up-to-date about the issues that significantly affect current and future Information Technology innovations and business practices.
Being informed about current key business issues allows you to enhance the relevance of your curriculum. Furthermore, this inside knowledge provides opportunities for research and specialization. In some cases, you can leverage the specialization into certification programs and training.
In addition, the CollegeCareerCorps® provides you with an additional source of revenue to fund research as well as student scholarships. In fact, as a charter sponsor, Cook Systems International has been highly involved in the creation of the nationally recognized Systems Testing Excellence Program at the University of Memphis' FedEx Institute of Technology (read more).
The CollegeCareerCorps® program also helps identify and can provide sponsored research opportunities. These opportunities enable faculty and college departments the ability to engage in specific corporate and government initiative projects within the community.
Involvement in the CollegeCareerCorps® provides many advantages and is a definite WIN for the Colleges and Universities that are engaged.
