HBCU Career Development Marketplace

4/13/2011 by Denise A. Vaughn

This year’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities Career Development Marketplace was held on October 29, 2009 at the Holiday Inn Capitol in Washington, DC. American Small Business Alliance, Inc. was thrilled to deliver an event of such magnitude. Each year this event creates a positive and intimate forum in which businesses have the opportunity to meet and greet HBCU upper classmen and leaders of tomorrow. The success from this year will help us continue to grow for many years to come. As this event continues to grow we seek more participation from HBCU’s and larger corporations. We have received positive feedback from many students such as Robert Grant from Shaw University who stated,

“Overall, I honestly think that the career fair and workshop sessions were definitely worth it. I gained a lot of knowledge pertaining to the workforce and what life is like outside of college. The most important concept to me was, understanding the difference between a job and a career.”

The American Small Business Alliance, Inc. wishes to thank everyone for another successful year. If you are interested in attending next year please call us at 301-596-6031, The Historically Black Colleges and Universities Career Development Marketplace will be (tentatively) held on October 28, 2010 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Washington D.C.
