NEWS and ACCO An Engineering Program for High School Students

Radiography Students Obtain 100 Percent Pass Rate on National Registry Exam

County College of Morris (CCM) and the Morris County Vocational School District are now offering a share time program in Engineering Design and Advanced Manufacturing (EDAM) for Morris County high school students.

Radiography students from the Class of 2014 at County College of Morris (CCM) obtained a 100 percent pass rate on the American Registry of Radiologic Technologist (ARRT) exam.

EDAM is designed for students with an interest in engineering, computer applications and manufacturing. At CCM, they learn through college-level work and hands-on activities, working on cutting-edge technologies in the college’s recently renovated labs. Upon completion of the two-year program, students earn 32 credits from CCM and Certificates of Achievement in Mechanical Computer-Aided Drafting and Engineering Technology. Students may then enroll in CCM’s Associate in Applied Science in Engineering Technology program for one additional year to earn their associate degree, or enroll at a four-year college or university to earn a bachelor's degree, or pursue workforce placement. For additional information, contact the Morris County School of Technology at 973-627-4600 ext. 277.

This is the fifth time since the program began at CCM in 1999 that students have gained a 100 percent pass rate. The CCM Classes of 2003, 2006, 2010 and 2012 also gained a perfect pass rate. The Class of 2014 consisted of 25 students. “I’m very proud of our students,” said Denise Vill’Neuve, chair of the Allied Health department at CCM. “They work very hard. This is not an easy program and many of the students have other commitments they also need to take care of outside of school.” Radiologic technologists work throughout the healthcare field to create medical images to aid radiologists and other doctors with diagnosing and treating medical problems. Students at CCM earn an Associate in Applied Science degree, which prepares them for entry-level diagnostic radiologic technologist positions.

Five County College of Morris (CCM) graphic design students – Jacobo Aristizabal, of Columbia; Steven Greene, of Dover; Christopher Hamfeldt, of Wharton; Darius Osorio, of Budd Lake; and Paul Sanford, of Parsippany – won “Best Presentation” at the 19th Annual Art Directors Club of New Jersey Design Derby Competition held during the Fall Semester.

(l-r) Christopher Hamfeldt, Paul Sanford, Jacobo Aristizabal, Steven Greene, Darius Osorio, New Jersey Design Derby winners, with Professor Stephen H. Longo.

The Design Derby challenges art students to develop on-the-spot presentations to pitch to a client. Students are split into teams and have three hours to generate hand-drawn concepts and successfully present their ideas. The competition stresses creativity over technique, therefore, the use of computers is prohibited. The “Best Presentation” category acknowledges exceptional public speaking skills as well as design.

This past Fall Semester, students from CCM and other New Jersey colleges gathered at Fairleigh Dickinson’s Florham Park campus and were asked to create a poster and T-shirt design promoting a 5K race fundraiser for the Market Street Mission, a nonprofit organization in Morristown devoted to assisting the homeless of Northern New Jersey. The five winners walked away with honorary student memberships to the Art Directors Club of New Jersey, a glass trophy and concepts to add to their portfolios.

MPLISHMENTS CCM Publications Continue to Rack up Awards The Youngtown Edition, the County College of Morris (CCM) student newspaper, and Promethean, the student literary magazine, have once again received prestigious awards. For the sixth time, Youngtown garnered Gold Medalist Status from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association (CSPA) in recognition of its overall excellence for the editions produced during the 201314 academic year. The award is one of the highest honors given by CSPA, the nation’s premiere journalism rating system for college newspapers. Promethean received honors for two separate editions, adding to its long list of awards. The 2012-13 issue was presented with a Gold award in the 2014 American Inhouse Design Awards in the Publications category. In addition, the 2013-14 Promethean was selected as a winner in the 2014 American Graphic Design Awards, an honor that the 2012-13 issue also earned. Both of those design competitions are sponsored by Graphic Design USA. Promethean was judged against work produced by professional designers, as there are no student-only categories.

Professor and Composer Wins International Competition An international award-winner, Dr. José Beviá, professor of music at County College of Morris, can now add first place winner in the 2014 Robert Avalon International Competition for Composers to his list of global honors. As a winner in the Career Professionals category, Beviá had his composition Cenizas Fuego performed at the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston last November. He also received a $1,000 cash award.

“I am humbled and honored to be presented with this award,” said Beviá. “The Robert Avalon Competition is known for drawing submissions from both emerging and established composers with talented and fresh approaches to contemporary compositions.” Raised in Spain, Beviá is also the winner of the 2011 Lee Ettelson Composer Award, the 2010 International Music Prize for Excellence in Composition from the National Academy of Music and the Municipal Conservatories of Neapolis and Sykies in Greece, the 2007 BMI Foundation Charlie Parker Composer Prize in New York, and the 2006 University of West Florida Phillips Jazz Piano Competition.

What Do I Want to Do With My Life?

By Kathleen Brunet Eagan Deciding on a college major and a career track can be a daunting task. What is the best match for your skills and interests? What careers come with good starting salaries, and which ones present the best opportunity for growth and advancement? And should salary be the top consideration or some other factor? Fortunately, there are a number of resources to help with that process. The County College of Morris (CCM) Department of Career Services and Cooperative Education offers a wide range of services to help students and alumni – and the general public, too – with identifying what careers are best suited to their personalities and interests. Found on the Career Services website is the Perfect Career Interest Inventory – http://tinyurl.com/owlulu8 – offered through Internet Career Connection. Taking the inventory not only helps individuals to determine what fields they are best suited for but also provides a listing of jobs in those fields. A resource for students who already know what they want to major in is What Can I Do with This Major? That can be found at http://tinyurl.com/ou64mhv. The online resource provides an easy way to research fields of study ranging from accounting to wildlife and fisheries, and everything in between. Visitors can view career paths, potential employers and what strategies to pursue to gain the best advantage for landing a job. For example, someone interested in biochemistry would find

that employers include universities, government and industry laboratories, and hospitals and rehabilitation centers, and that job candidates should gain experience through internships and develop strong communication skills to gain a competitive edge. To determine how easy or difficult it might be to find a job in different fields, two resources to check are the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Outlook Handbook at www.bls.gov/ooh and the Industry & Occupational Employment Projections for New Jersey at http://tinyurl.com/mejywew. Both offer employment projections by various industry sectors. The Occupational Outlook Handbook additionally provides median salaries, along with educational requirements. Many other resources also are available to assist with the career selection process. To find out what else can help with deciding on a life direction, visit the CCM Career Services and Cooperative Education website at http://www.ccm.edu/studentLife/CareerServices.

The Value of Internships and Cooperative Education Internships and cooperative education (co-op) programs provide students not only with valuable hands-on experience they can include on their resumes, but also an inside view of the fields they are considering in a way a class cannot. Such opportunities contribute significantly to the success of students as they develop professional skills and networks of people in their fields of interest. Sometimes, these opportunities also can lead to employment opportunities. For many students, internships and co-ops also are a defining moment that solidify their interest in a particular field or prompt them to consider another option. The difference between internships and co-ops at County College of Morris (CCM) are that co-ops are paid positions with a minimum work requirement of 300 hours a semester. Internships are unpaid positions with a minimum work requirement of 150 hours. Both, however, provide students with the opportunity to develop on-the-job skills and gain critical experience. At CCM, co-ops or internships are offered in the following fields of study: • Biotechnology/Biology • Broadcasting, Media Studies

• Early Childhood Development/ Education

• Business

• Electronics Engineering Technology

• Chemical Technology/Chemistry

• Graphic Design

•C omputer Information Systems

• Hospitality Management

•C ommunication

• Journalism, Media Studies

• Criminal Justice

• Landscape and Horticultural Technology

• Culinary Arts and Sciences

• Mechanical Engineering Technology

• Dance

• Photography Technology

• Digital Media Technology

• Telecommunications Systems Technology

Learning to Become

World Citizens Associate in Arts, International Studies By Nancy Dreyfus In the coming years, humanity will be facing an increasing number of global problems. The ability to effectively address them will depend upon cultural respect and understanding, says James Hart, chair of the Languages and English for Speakers of Other Languages programs at County College of Morris (CCM). That’s where a degree in international studies will prove valuable. “This degree is not limited to international business needs, but will also help tackle the problems of the 21st century including the war on terror, global financial crisis, growing population and dwindling resources, and global inequality,” Hart explains.

Diverse Career Opportunities As the Internet and social media continue to bring world cultures closer together, the demand for people with a global perspective will become even stronger. A degree in international studies can lead to careers in government, including serving in embassies overseas and the Department of Homeland Security; international business including marketing and sales; translator/interpreter positions at the United Nations and other intergovernmental organizations; international development work such as with the World Bank; and teaching stateside or overseas.

Study Abroad Provides a Unique Perspective To enhance their course work, students are encouraged to study abroad. Through a national college consortium, they can choose from 27 countries. “International studies offers students the pleasure of connecting with somebody with a different background and discovering what they have in common despite their differences – essentially, discovering someone else’s humanity,” Hart says. “When they study abroad, they aren’t just learning how to interact with people from another culture, but also learning how to navigate their way in that society.” He adds, “These programs are vital for the next generation as the world gets smaller and smaller because of technology. Successful leaders will need the tools of cultural understanding to solve problems on a global scale. What’s key is that we’re not just educating people to go into a career, we’re educating people to become world citizens.”

The mission of the International Studies program at CCM is to provide students with the general education course work and background needed to transfer to a similar program at a four-year institution. The core curriculum includes courses in culture, geography, world literature and four semesters of a foreign language, culminating in an Associate in Arts degree.

Faculty Profile Pursuing a World View of Life James Hart, Chair, Languages and ESL; Assistant Professor, ESL, Spanish and Intercultural Communication

When James Hart was introduced to his first foreign language in seventh grade – Spanish – he fell in love with it. His resolve to pursue international studies solidified in high school during a class trip to the United Nations. “The United Nations left a profound impression on me,” recalls Hart, chair of the Languages and English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESL) programs and assistant professor of ESL, Spanish and Intercultural Communication at County College of Morris. “It fascinated me. I wanted to know more about it and the international politics that surrounded it.”

He attended the School of International Service at American University in Washington, D.C., specializing in Spanish and Latin American studies. After graduation, he began his career, which took him to Princeton, Manhattan and London. Eventually, he earned a master’s degree in applied linguistics at Montclair State University and decided to enter the teaching profession.

Teaching the Next Generation of Global Citizens

“Ever since I graduated from my college, I knew that higher education was where I wanted to be,” Hart says. “Whenever a student comes to me after class and says, ‘This class has really taught me to think about the world differently,’ that’s rewarding – that’s what intercultural communications is all about. Students take those communication skills into the workplace and into their relationships and, hopefully, all of those become better as a result.” He adds, “The most challenging aspect of international studies is its breadth. Language and culture are about people and that can be almost infinite. One day I might be reading a book about Spanish culture and the next I’ll find myself listening to a show on National Public Radio about the Middle East.”

He believes that society’s emphasis on career preparation is necessary, but limited. “I think what we forget as a society is that we’re not just training people to be workers, but trying to educate citizens of our country and our world. That means a solid grounding in the humanities including language and culture.” He adds that the field of international studies offers a unique perspective on life. “Studying languages and culture, you learn how to remove yourself from your own culture and see into others'. People are so diverse that there’s something new to learn every day.”

Careers in Law Enforcement

Begin at CCM Associate in Science, Criminal Justice By Nancy Dreyfus Many law enforcement officers who watch over the communities of Morris County began their studies at County College of Morris (CCM). Other graduates secured positions in corrections or for private security companies, and a few have earned coveted spots in the U.S. Secret Service and the U.S. Navy Judge Advocate General's Corps. “Law enforcement has always been a highly competitive field,” says Dr. William Solomons, assistant chair and assistant professor of Criminal Justice at CCM. A former detective sergeant for the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office, he notes, “If you can separate yourself from other applicants, it helps.” To help students to accomplish that, CCM has developed seven different tracks that Criminal Justice students can chose from: arson, computer forensics, corrections, criminal investigations, homeland security, juvenile issues and law.

Learning from the Experts Students also can augment their studies with participation in the Morris County Law Enforcement Career Development Workshop. Sponsored by the Morris County Board of Chosen Freeholders, the New Jersey Police Community Affairs Officers Associa-

I remember having professors at CCM who

had come from law enforcement backgrounds. They were able to teach not only the theory of criminal justice, but also the practical side — confirming or elaborating on what we learned.

It’s important to know how theory meets up with the real world. I’ve found that approach to be the cornerstone of my educational experience. Martin R. Ebelhardt, ‘87 Associate in Arts, Criminal Justice Bachelor of Arts, Management, National Louis University, Class of 1991 Master of Arts, Human Development, St. Mary’s University, Class of 2015 Assistant Supervisory Air-Marshal-in-Charge, Federal Air Marshal Service, Minneapolis

tion and the Morris County Department of Law and Public Safety, the 10-week series provides a broad range of weekly workshops on topics ranging from preparing for law enforcement examinations, to interviewing for a job, to suicide prevention and stress management. To ensure that the CCM curriculum remains current with real-world demands, the college's Criminal Justice Advisory Board, consisting of law enforcement professionals, offers guidance on how best to prepare students. Faculty members in the Criminal Justice department additionally bring decades of experience from state, county and federal police agencies, as well as excellent academic credentials in law and criminal justice studies.

Solomons explains. “Their staff is on campus, and Rutgers has a remarkable reputation in criminal justice.” He adds, “The greatest thing about teaching criminal justice is, that daily, you have the opportunity to discuss aspects of a student’s intended career and blend the academia with real-world situations and perspectives. Offering that support is very rewarding.”

Earning a Rutgers Bachelor’s Degree at CCM A recent agreement with Rutgers University in Newark allows students to earn a criminal justice bachelor’s degree onsite at CCM. “Students can seamlessly transfer into the Rutgers program,”

He worked for most of his career at the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office, investigating crimes and teaching at the police academy.

Lessons Learned Close to Home One of his earliest cases as a detective hit close to home. A man mentioned molesting a young boy during a therapy session. His therapist was obligated to report it. Solomons followed all possible leads to find out who the boy was, but came up empty. He then interviewed the man. Ultimately, the man confessed, providing the name of the boy. “When he told me who the kid was, my heart dropped,” says Solomons. “I had coached him in baseball the year before. He had not had an easy life. As difficult a situation as it was, I was grateful that it was I who informed the family about it.” He also learned about racism close to home. “My youngest brother is adopted and is African American. Although a good kid and a good driver, he used to tell me about how he was stopped on almost a daily basis in certain towns. This was eye opening. Whether or not I saw racism directly, I had to acknowledge it and address it in my job and in my teaching.”

Being Part of the Community Locally and Globally Solomons believes that maintaining a relationship within the community – locally and globally – is important for police officers. Early in his career, he became associated with an organization whose volunteers travel to various parts of the world, visiting orphanages and senior centers, dressed as Santa. He has visited communities in Africa, Asia and South America. “You never forget the feeling of walking into an orphanage dressed as Santa with bags of toys,” he says. “There are intense highs and lows in law enforcement,” he notes. “But I am not certain that there exists a better job out there in which it is possible, every day, to make a positive impact in people’s lives.”

Defending Wellness

Locally and Globally Associate in Science, Public Health

By Nancy Dreyfus From addressing the spread of Ebola, to assisting with the aftermath of a natural disaster, to helping people develop better habits, public health professionals stand on the front lines of health for local, state, national and world populations. Beginning with the 2015 Fall Semester, the first associate degree program in public health in New Jersey will be offered by a consortium of schools including County College of Morris (CCM).

A Growing Demand “Public health is a growing need locally and globally,” says Monica Maraska, MSN, RN, chair and professor of Nursing at CCM. Public health professionals help to promote wellness and prevent disease and injury through education, the collection of data and research, and the development of policy and regulations. According to the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, there is expected to be a growing need for environmental health specialists, epidemiologists, health educators, occupational health and safety technicians, occupational health specialists and public health nutritionists in the state. “It is a broad major that opens the doors to many opportunities,” Maraska says. “There are jobs in the private sector and the government at many levels, including municipal, county, state, federal and global agencies.” The new Public Health program was developed jointly by a consortium of schools including CCM, Brookdale Community College, Mercer County Community College and Middlesex County College, and facilitated by public health professionals at the Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University. The program will allow students to develop a background in public health through introductory coursework and training in laboratory science. Articulation agreements also will be available to students in the near future so they can seamlessly transfer to four-year institutions to complete a bachelor's degree.

A Career with Ripple Effects

“Our graduates will be confronting every public health issue you see on the front pages of newspapers — from the implications of vaccines on community health to the effects of global warming on people and the natural environment. It’s a truly exciting field.”

“Students who pursue public health as a career will work with people on a one-to-one basis with positive results that can ripple out to communities and nations,” Maraska says.


Student Profile On the Front Lines – From the Marines to Health Care Juan Diaz, Nursing “I enlisted in the Marines right out of high school,” recalls Juan Diaz, a nursing student at County College of Morris (CCM). “I didn’t have any direction and I thought joining the military would give me that.” He wasn’t disappointed. He trained at Parris Island in South Carolina, then was sent to Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, AZ, to join Marine Attack Squadron 311. While stationed there, he received one of the most difficult phone calls of his life.

Nurses Who Make a Difference “My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer,” he says. “I remember feeling powerless to help her.” She was frightened but spoke very highly of her medical team. It was then that Diaz first considered health care as a career. “My mother said the nurses made things better. I realized they had the greatest influence over the patient experience and I wanted to be part of that.” He was deployed from Arizona to Iraq, where he worked in headquarters administration with occasional guard duties. After his honorable discharge in 2011, he took advantage of the G.I. Bill, which provides 36 months of college fully paid. “I have a lot of veteran buddies. My friends at other schools have had issues receiving their veterans’ benefits, but the people I worked with at CCM made it easy.” He says that the camaraderie he found in the Marines also exists among the nursing students. “In the Marines and in nursing, effective team collaboration can mean the difference between life and death. Everybody has an important part and learning each others’ strengths and weaknesses makes yours the optimal team.” His teachers also have his back. “I get so much face time with my professors and clinical instructors. They collaborate with us and look at us as future nurses more than students.” When he graduates in May, one of the people proudly watching him receive his diploma will be his mother, a breast cancer survivor in remission for two years. He plans next to attend a four-year college and wants to become a critical care nurse. “There’s something about that level of vulnerability with these patients,” he says. “It’s the type of situation where I feel I can do the most for a patient.”

Alumnus Profile

Criminal Justice Degree Brings Rich Rewards Martin Ebelhardt, ’87, Associate in Science, Criminal Justice By Nancy Dreyfus Thirty years ago, when Martin R. Ebelhardt, formerly of Randolph, majored in criminal justice at County College of Morris (CCM), he never imagined that his career would take him to the White House and beyond. “I had initially started my college experience at Stockton State in South Jersey,” Ebelhardt says. “I decided to come back, live at home and go to CCM because of financial issues in the family.” He quickly gravitated to the world of law enforcement and earned his Associate of Science degree in Criminal Justice in 1987.

Secret Service Detail at the White House “After I graduated from CCM, I applied and was selected for a position with the U.S. Secret Service Uniform Division in Washington D.C.,” he says. During his seven years working at the White House, he met two presidents, heads of state, and several entertainers and musicians. As a member of the elite Secret Service Emergency Response Team, he helped secure the safety of the White House and surrounding areas. In that capacity, he responded to a fatal plane crash on the White House lawn and a fence-jumper with a gun. However, he notes, that sort of activity was not the norm. “The job seems like it would be exciting, but much of the time it involves a lot of standing and waiting,” says Ebelhardt. “It is really mostly about planning for and being prepared to respond to something that will probably never happen.” Next, he became a special agent in the Detroit office of the Drug Enforcement Administration. Part of his job involved training others and he discovered he enjoyed that aspect. “What I found was that I had a stronger interest in teaching than in chasing bad guys.” When the Air Marshal Service formed after September 11, 2001, he joined as a training and operations supervisor in Minneapolis. Today, he is the assistant supervisory airmarshal-in-charge.

Focus on Health and Wellness His advice to students considering a career in law enforcement is to take care of their health and develop good coping mechanisms. “There are some fairly serious demands that the career has in terms of emotional and mental well-being,” he advises. “I would recommend having a heavy focus on health and wellness.” He received a bachelor’s degree in management from National Louis University in Virginia in 1991, and is currently pursuing a master’s degree in human development from St. Mary’s University in Minneapolis. Once he receives that degree, Ebelhardt plans to develop a wellness course for law enforcement officers. “I want to give officers going into the field tools to manage stress and the demands the job puts on you as a human being,” he says.

Holly Lusardi, ’07, Associate in Applied Science, Computer Science

By Rick Burchfield Holly Lusardi is a big supporter of women making their mark in science and technology, something she has done since the 1980s.

of software design the way many did in the 1980s – through onthe-job training.

The Parsippany resident is also a believer in County College of Morris (CCM), which helped her to update her technical skills after taking a 10-year hiatus following the birth of her third daughter.

“I was in the right place at the right time,” says Lusardi, who received her initial training on a billing system while working for AP-Dow Jones News Service. From there, she received formal training from H. Ross Perot’s company, Electronic Data Systems (EDS), which had created an in-house program because of the lack of college computer science programs at the time. She worked at EDS for 11 years prior to the birth of her third daughter.

“In 2006, I took a course at CCM to see if I was still interested in software development,” Lusardi says. “I had a great professor named Nancy Binowski (chair of Information Technologies). It made me decide I wanted my degree in computer science.” Lusardi followed through, graduating with honors with her Associate in Science in Computer Science and as a member of the Phi Theta Kappa honor society in 2007.

Enjoying the Challenge Lusardi, who received her master's degree in software engineering last May from Stevens Institute of Technology, has been working since 2008 for Universal Technical Resource Services (UTRS), Inc. as a software engineer at Picatinny Arsenal. “What I enjoy about software engineering is always learning something new. Every day is challenging. You get to work individually and also be part of a team to help your customer succeed.” After graduating with a bachelor's degree in international relations from the University of Delaware, Lusardi stumbled upon the world

Encouraging More Women to STEM Lusardi has made a point to stay connected to CCM, serving on the Information Technologies Advisory Committee since 2012. She also has given talks to students at the college several times on the topic of women participating in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. Last year, she served as the keynote speaker at CCM’s annual Women Who Dare conference, addressing approximately 200 high school females regarding the prospects of STEM jobs. “As well as accounting for half the population, women have many strengths that are needed in STEM careers and our input needs to be part of every problem solution.

Launching a Career in a Competitive Market Tips and Strategies that Can Make a Difference By Denise Schmidt, Director, Career Services and Cooperative Education

“Finding a job has become the No. 1 concern for most of the 1.3 million college students who graduate this spring. Although the improved economy has dispelled some of the graduating gloom so evident in recent years, students still have to scramble to find employment they feel will justify the expense of four years of college training.”

“Despite the current debate over the actual value of a traditional college education, college placement officers generally are confident that students, if they begin their career orientation early and follow some basic guidelines, will largely be successful in finding a good job. Prospects for high school graduates with no higher education or technical training look progressively gloomier as their numbers increase.” Excerpted from an editorial in Today’s Sunbeam, May 12, 1976

The economic realities of a time nearly four decades ago confront us again today. In the intervening years, a rollercoaster of economic cycles has created an ebb and flow of employment opportunities and options. New college graduates with their relative lack of experience often find that transitioning to a career can be a challenge. Compounding that challenge, the seismic shifts of the recent recession have exacerbated the situation. Unemployment figures released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicate “a stagnating, if not regressing, college labor market.” Today’s new graduates enter a job market that is highly competitive, with formidable “opponents” who possess both higher education and significant experience. The good news, however, is that regardless of age or stage of life, you can take steps to feel empowered in your search and, through that empowerment, meet with success. The degree to which job seekers embrace and engage the myriad tools, technology and techniques available today will help ensure their success. Consider these tips and strategies for finding meaningful employment.

Fully Utilize all Resources Take full advantage of as many job search resources as possible, such as professional networks, personal contacts, job boards and company websites. Keep your options open. Consider that less-than-ideal positions can be stepping stones and opportunities to acquire skills and clarify your career goals. More mature job seekers should inventory their skills and target organizations and positions that could make the best use of all that they have to offer. Those transitioning to retirement might want to consider “encore careers” that offer enrichment or opportunities to give back. No matter your circumstance, follow up on leads ASAP. Your competition will.

Take Care of Your Digital Footprint

Consider carefully what your digital footprint says about you. Employers access social media to screen applicants and have cited inappropriate photos, references to drinking or drugs, discrimina-


Five Steps for Job Search Success Prepare for the Interview • D o your research – get to know the company before you even step through the door.

tory comments and lying about qualifications as top reasons why candidates are rejected. “Google” yourself and clean up what you can. Create a complete and professional LinkedIn profile. Writing a resume? The best advice is to stay on topic. Include only what is specific, significant and of value to the prospective employer. Resumes get interviews. Interviews get jobs. White space, font size, layout, spelling, grammar, punctuation – they all matter. Proofread your resume and cover letter carefully and have someone else look them over, too. Before you send them, proof them once more. Employers who want to “pare down the pile” will quickly eliminate candidates whose documents are flawed. If emailing your resume, attach it to the email, do not include it in the body of the text, and be sure that your email message is as appropriate and letter perfect as your resume.

• C onnect the dots between what an employer is looking for and what you can bring to the position.

Build a Network • J oin a professional association in your field of interest – and volunteer to serve on a committee or help with a project. • T hank the people who have assisted you – email is fine but a handwritten card is even better.

Create Your Brand • M ake sure your resume and cover letter are top notch and free of misspellings. • S et up a LinkedIn account and become an expert by posting articles you find and commenting on other people’s posts. • Clean up your social media accounts.

Prepare for the Interview Before an interview, research the company and read up on the latest news in its field. Given the availability of information on the Internet, ignorance is inexcusable. Practice interviewing. Use online resources. Be prepared to back up the claims on your resume. Be on time for the interview. Be professional in appearance and presentation. Keep your answers brief and to the point. Exercise caution when responding. Think twice, speak once. A solid interview can get you the job even if you were not the strongest candidate on paper. Finally, remember that looking for a job is hard work. Always has been, always will be. It is an emotional process and one that can take a toll on your mental and physical wellbeing. Surround yourself with positive people to support and encourage you. Believe in yourself and others will, too.

Identify Your Strengths • K now what you have to offer an employer – have you been involved with student groups, served as a volunteer or worked as an intern? What skills did you develop? • A sk your family and friends what they view as your strengths.

Tap into Your Career Services Center • D elve into the resources on the CCM Career Services website to research fields of study, career choices, salaries and more. • M ake an appointment with a career counselor to discover your best opportunities.

Single Mother of Three Pursues Her Dream of Helping Children To Learn Tara Gentle, Scholarship Recipient

By Talia Smith A single mother of three children, Tara Gentle, 33, turned to County of College of Morris (CCM) to reach for her dream of becoming an early childhood educator. Enrolled as a part-time student, she has learned to juggle home life, childcare, school and work with a great measure of success. As one indication of that success, this Spring Semester she was awarded the Robert Mayo Memorial Scholarship through the CCM Foundation. The scholarship is designated for a degreeseeking adult student with family responsibilities. Gentle, the mother of 3-year-old son, Wesson, and 14-year-old twin daughters, Alyssa and Veronica, certainly has those qualifications. “I am caregiver, nurse, cook, psychologist; you name it,” says Gentle, of Ledgewood. “It all comes along with being a mother.” To keep up with her school work, Gentle takes advantage of any opportunity she can find to study quietly.

“Everything for me turns into a song or a learning experience."

CCM Foundation Scholarships Reduce the Cost of College Make a Gift The County College of Morris Foundation awards more than $200,000 each year in scholarships to help students realize their dreams of a high-quality education. The foundation accepts gifts of: • Cash or Check • Securities • Life Insurance

somewhere,” Gentle says. “That way I manage to study in my car while he’s taking a nap.”

• Real Property

Enrolled in CCM’s Early Childhood Education program, Gentle aspires to teach grades K-3. She has previous experience working at schools with special needs children and babysits for families in her area.

• Planned Gifts (including Charitable Gift Annuities and Charitable Trusts)

• Estate Gifts

Nurturing is second nature to Gentle, who believes that motherhood goes hand-in-hand with teaching.

Gifts can be made online at www.ccm.edu/donate.

“I’m kind of like a magnet for children and I even love the smell of schools,” she says. “Everything for me turns into a song or a learning experience.”

For more information, contact the County College of Morris Foundation at foundation@ccm.edu or 973-328-5060, or visit www.ccm.edu/foundation.

She was particularly excited to tell Alyssa and Veronica about receiving her scholarship. As her daughters approach college age, Gentle is encouraging them to attend CCM and make education their priority. “I really want my daughters to just home in and go to school and let that be their one job,” she says. “I understand most young adults need extra cash, but you can clock out of that job and focus on your studies. You can never clock out of being a parent.” Gentle’s children are her biggest “cheerleaders” and motivate her to achieve high grades and set a good example. “I love her,” says Wesson, who is proud of his mother’s accomplishments.

Five Good Reasons to Attend a Community College By Kathleen Brunet Eagan With college tuition averaging $30,094 for private colleges, $8,893 for state residents at public colleges and $22,203 for out-of-state residents attending public universities,* it makes good sense to start an education at a community college. At County College of Morris (CCM), the annual cost of tuition and fees for a full-time student earning 12 credits a semester is $3,656. Earning a college degree debt free, or with a manageable student loan, however, is not the only reason to attend a community college. Here are five other good reasons.

1. Explore Your Options

3. Finish that College Degree

Not everyone knows what career path he or she wants to pursue after graduating high school. In fact, about 80 percent of college students change their majors at least once, and many change their majors at least three times. By starting at a community college, students can explore a range of academic majors at a significantly reduced cost and in classes that are small enough so they can get to know their professors and really explore their options.

2. Improve that Grade Point Average Some high school students do not take their educations as seriously as they should during their teenage years. Then they graduate and realize they need to develop a plan for their lives. As an open access institution, CCM provides a pathway for building a strong grade point average (GPA) and opening up the doors to opportunity. In recent years, CCM graduates who did not do well in high school have transferred to Cornell, Harvard, Princeton and other top schools after developing an impressive GPA at CCM – and many of them with scholarships to continue that education.

According to the National Student Clearinghouse, 31 million adults in the United States have completed some college but did not earn a degree or certificate. A community college provides an affordable option for putting that education to work by earning a degree and increasing earnings. The U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics shows that on average, people with an associate degree earn about $10,000 more a year than those with just a high school diploma. Over the course of an adult’s working life that adds up to $400,000 or more income.

4. Enter the Job Market Immediately Many good – and well paying – careers require only an associate degree. For example, an Associate in Applied Science in Electronics Engineering Technology prepares graduates for entry-level positions in electronics, while an Associate in Applied Science in Radiography or Respiratory Therapy prepares graduates for work in two strong job growth areas in health care.

5. Earn a Certificate For those looking to update their skills or transition to a new career and who don’t have a lot of time, CCM offers a wide range of credit and non-credit certificate programs. Certificates that prepare people to enter the job market directly range from home health aide, to landscape and horticultural technology, to medical billing and coding, to search engine optimization, along with a host of other programs.

How to Fit College into Your Schedule Wondering how you can fit college into your schedule? County College of Morris offers a variety of course options to make it as easy as possible. While the majority of classes are taught as traditional in-classroom courses within a 16-week semester, many others are offered in alternative formats as listed below. We also offer an extensive program of evening classes. To learn more about all we have to offer, visit www.ccm.edu, click on WebAdvisor, Prospective Students, Search for Sections. •A ccelerated Courses – reduce the amount of time it takes to complete a 16-week semester. •F ast Track Courses – are condensed from 16 weeks to eight weeks or fewer. Courses are taught in a hybrid format with combined in-class and online instruction. •H ybrid Courses – take place both in class and online, reducing the amount of time you need to be on campus.

Generally, these courses are 16-weeks long but some may be offered over a shorter time period. •L ate Start Classes – begin after the first week of a semester. These are generally eight-weeks long and are taught in class, online or as hybrid courses. •M ini Terms – provide students with the option of fitting more classes into a semester. They consist of condensed classes running for 14, 10, eight, five or

two weeks. By completing a mini-term class that may be needed to meet a prerequisite, students then can enroll for additional condensed courses within the same semester. •O nline Courses – are offered entirely online. However, you may be required to attend an in-person student orientation or take a test or assessment on campus.
