Career Counseling and Support Services

Virtual Workshop Request

Thank you so much for your interest in using Career Counseling and Support Services. In an effort to provide quality workshops in a timely manner, the following policies are effective.

In an effort to serve as many students as possible, note that Career Counseling and Support Services is now offering weekly on-line career related workshops, within office hours. All students and postdocs are welcome to join during the dates and times listed online. Prior registration is not required, but your students will need to log in with their Ohio State Zoom information.

If you require an accommodation such as live captioning or interpretation to participate in this event, please contact Ryan Wilhelm from Career Counseling and Support Services at wilhelm.118@osu.edu. Requests made two weeks before the event will generally allow us to provide seamless access, but the university will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.

Career Counseling and Support Services can facilitate virtual workshop requests during office hours. Requests made by academic units will be forwarded to internal career service offices when applicable.

Evening workshops are conducted during spring 2021 on Wednesdays after 5 p.m. Request a virtual workshop
