Faculty/Staff Guide to Career Services
eLC Career Development Modules
To assist with the integration of career development within the classroom, the UGA Career Center provides modules that UGA faculty and instructors can request for eLC courses. Each module presents online resources, informational videos, and potential action items in a self-paced format that does not interfere with existing course materials.
If you would like to add any of these modules to your eLC course, please see further details in this brief request form. If you would like to view the eLC modules before using them, you may self-enroll in the course.
