Be an EBSTC Ambassador...

...at East Bay Colleges and Universities

The EBSTC College Connection committee is looking for professionals from a variety of jobs within the technical communication arena to talk to students about the many career paths, opportunities, and rewards in our chosen profession. This may take the form of panel discussions in classes or one-on-one conversations at career days and other employment related activities.

If you're willing to describe your work and help young college students explore this career potential for themselves, join our Speakers Bureau.

All college events will be staffed from available members of the EBSTC College Connection Speakers Bureau. Sign up today!
