Teacher Resources

CU Career Services provides many resources for students/alumni who are seeking a career in the field of education. We also work closely with the School of Education to assist student teachers with their job search, including the many workshops and events (see link below) that take place during the fall and spring semesters. Counselors can help with: specialized resumes, student teacher applications and finding a permanent position. Interviewing practice using a webcam is also beneficial and highly recommended.

For specific questions, contact:
Judy Hlawatsch, 303-492-8519; Sandra Rosewell, 303-492-4126

To schedule an appointment with a counselor or to do a one-on-one webcam practice interview, call (303)-492-6541.
