This Friday’s Roundtable: Staying Relevant and Reading Between the Lines
When:
Friday, October 7
1:00-2:30pm
Where:
Shoreline Community College
Bldg 9000, Rm 9202
The job picture in our area has changed considerably over the past few years – it’s in fact looking quite good!
But the competition for good jobs is still fierce. This week we’ll talk about “branding up” and growing your network. Also, I’ll project a few job descriptions for a look into deciphering what employers want against our qualifications. As always, with great coffee and light refreshments, compliments of Central Market.
Next week (10/14), Derek Bender from Port of Seattle will pay a visit with his Binder ‘O Jobs. These are good paying opportunities, and he’ll key us all in on just what they look for down at the Port.
See you Friday – and as always, Good Luck Out There!

GAC: The Iranian Nuclear Deal – Preventing a Weapons Program?, PUB 9208
Thurs., Oct. 6: 7-8:30 p.m.
Come to a talk featuring Dr. Halvor A Undem, University of Washington, Jackson School of International Studies, and former Advisor to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
In 2015, a landmark nuclear deal was reached between Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers (the United States, Great Britain, France, China and Russia plus Germany). Crippling economic sanctions on Iran would be lifted once the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) certified that Iran had restricted its sensitive nuclear activities. The White House says the deal will prevent Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon. Iran says it has the right to nuclear energy – and stresses that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only.
Additional support provided by the Center for Global Studies, Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies, UW. For more information about Dr. Halvor A Undem, visit our biographies page.

Understanding Test Anxiety
Wed., Oct. 5, PUB 9208
12:30-1:30 p.m.
Does the following sound like you or a student you know?
You’ve participated in class, done all of your homework, studied hard, and you think you have a grip on the material. But then the day of the test comes. Suddenly, you blank out, freeze up, zone out, or feel so nervous that you can’t get it together to respond to those questions you knew the answers to just last night.
If this sounds like you or a student you know, it may have a case of test anxiety — that nervous feeling that people sometimes get when they’re about to take a test.
It’s pretty normal to feel a little nervous and stressed before a test. Just about everyone does. And a touch of nervous anticipation can actually help you keep you at peak performance while you’re taking the test. But for some people, this normal anxiety is more intense. The nervousness they feel before a test can be so strong that it interferes with their concentration or performance.
Learn more about test anxiety and walk away with a few tips to help reduce anxiety and do your best on that next test or exam!
Workshop is open to all and no RSVP needed. Feel free to bring your lunch!
