Keeping In Touch With Graduates Is A Full Time Project For Cambrian College
Celina Cacciotti, (left) Manager of Alumni Relations for Cambrian College and her assistant, Tricia Valentim, were the special guests on the April 7, 2008 edition of “Inside Education”, a local talk show on CKLU 96.7 FM that is broadcast live every Monday evening at 6 p.m. from the studios at Laurentian University. Robert Kirwan, an Independent Education & Career Development Specialist who operates a private practice called The Greater Sudbury Learning Clinic, is the producer and host of the program which consists of an engaging conversation with a person from a different career field each week. The purpose of the show is to provide listeners with some valuable down-to-earth insight and information which may prove helpful for those who are looking for tips and strategies that will help them become more successful in their current or future careers.

Celina has been working with the Alumni Relations Department for several years now, while Tricia has been her assistant for the past year. Both indicate that it is absolutely wonderful to find out how graduates are doing so many years after they left Cambrian. 

They indicated that the demographics at Cambrian College reflect the changes that are occurring with careers in the world today. Over 50% of the student body consists of mature students - adults who are returning to school to receive diplomas and training for new careers. 

One of the listeners called in to the show and suggested that even as people are moving about and changing careers often, they must be aware of establishing a good track reference for future positions. Company leaders are looking for "good people" today. If you are a good person, you will find satisfying careers out there where employers will take time to train you. They can always teach you skills, but they can't teach you to become a "good person".
