ProfessioNole Pathways and Badging

In collaboration with the Career Center and campus content experts, help prepare the talent of the future through competency development.  The Career Center will work with you to develop a custom badge pathway to provide unique learning opportunities and experiences for students based on your needs or the needs of the workforce.  Each badge designed will align with the University's ProfessioNole Competencies, which are based on the career ready competencies outlined by the National Association of Colleges and Employers.

Benefits Include:

  • Your organization's name or logo will appear on the badge and will be incorporated into the badge or badge pathway description.
  • The badge will be linked back to your organizations career opportunities webpage.
  • Your logo will also appear on The Career Center website acknowledging your badge creation and support of student success at Florida State University.
  • These badges may be created in concert with departments, faculty and/or staff on campus.

The Career Center is ready to help you develop a pipeline of talent based on your needs and the competencies that are most important to your organization.
