Why Do Schools Need College Site Access?
- The world is flat! Employers in the new global economy are looking for demonstrable cross-cultural skills. International acumen is now directly related to professional success both abroad and at home.
- The BIG Guide Online is the Web version of The BIG Guide to Living and Working Overseas, which is widely considered to be the world's best international career guide.
- With College Site Access, students, faculty and staff have 24/7 access to 44 Chapters of Expert Advice, 26+ Quick Guides, 2,600+ Organization Profiles and 1,200+ Resources in 75 Bibliographies. School administrators can also provide access to recent alumni.
- Interactive, customizable features in the guide include: private notes, highlighting, bookmarking and discarding, easy navigation, reader contributions, self-assessment quizzes, personalized learning paths and more.
- Student advisors and staff can tap into The BIG Guide's many resources to find material for seminars and one-on-one counseling sessions. Many student advisors have not traveled abroad themselves; and The BIG Guide offers them the latest and most relevant information on global career skills, which can highlight and pass on to their students.
