*2006 Career Connection Conference for students of color*

As part of an effort to promote career opportunities and to build a
pipeline of future leaders in Boston, The Partnership/KeySpan College to
Career Program presents the 2006 CAREER CONNECTION CONFERENCE for
undergraduate & graduate students of color.

On Friday, November 3, 2006 and Saturday, November 4, 2006, this
conference will provide students of color with a day of leadership
development workshops, vital networking opportunities to foster
relationships and exposure to the Greater Boston area corporations.

In February of 2006, at our Career Connection, twenty-seven companies
met with a diverse pool of students of color representing 29 colleges
and 34 major/concentrations. As a result, many internship and full time
job matches were made.

For more information about this event, or ways to become more
strategically involved in our College to Career Program, please contact
me via email, hvassell at thepartnershipinc.org, or by phone, 617.262.2828.
