The ultimate goal of Platt College is to assist all graduates in their job search in the field for which they have been trained. The school maintains an active career education program for qualified graduates.
Graduates are given the opportunity to pursue job referrals generated by Career Services. A vast majority of our graduates who seek employment find positions in the field for which they are trained. However, the school cannot guarantee employment.
Career Services strives to see that each graduate understands the job search process. Placement begins on orientation day at which time the importance of the student’s attendance and productivity in class is stressed. During the course of training, the Career Services staff meets with each student to become familiar with his or her special skills, background and goals.
Additionally, students participate in the following:
1. Writing résumés and letters of application.
2. Researching and contacting potential employers.
3. Interviewing skills.
4. Portfolio preparation.
