Dear Faculty,

Welcome to the Fall 2025 semester!

We invite you to join us for Career-Connected Learning in the Curriculum, an opportunity to learn how you can infuse career thinking into your courses, and support career success and greater economic mobility for students.

The Career-Connected Learning in the Curriculum event will take place on Tuesday, September 16, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM in the Muyskens Conference Room at The Summit.

Dr. Maria DeLongoria, QC Associate Provost for Academic and Faculty Affairs, will provide opening remarks, followed by two guest speakers:

• Dr. Niesha Taylor, Director of Career Readiness, National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), will discuss the NACE career competencies and why it is so critical to help students learn how to represent their career proficiencies throughout their academic journey, and will present best practices for academically rigorous competency integration in the curriculum.
• Dr. Robin Kietlinski, Professor of History, LaGuardia Community College; CUNY Office of Career and Industry Partnership (OCIP) Strategy Innovation Fellow, will showcase the CUNY faculty-created Career-Connected Learning Resource Hub, a tool to help CUNY faculty from all disciplines incorporate career-connected learning into their courses, and will spotlight examples of how the tool is being used across campuses.

We’ll close with a discussion of career initiatives underway at QC, and how we can expand our efforts.
