WHERE

My Career Transitions meetings/forums are held the second Saturday of the month, 9:45 – 11:45a.m., at Penn State’s Great Valley campus, Conference Center (building on the left), Warren Musser Auditorium, 30 East Swedesford Road, Malvern, Pa, 19355. There is no meeting in August or December.

WHY

My Career Transitions was started in 2005 by Penn State alumnus Bart Ruff, and was ranked #2 for Greater Philadelphia networking associations in 2015 by The Philadelphia Business Journal . In over ten years, the group has helped more than 4,000 area professionals navigate job transition. The group has accomplished this without funding; it relies on the efforts of a dozen volunteers who contribute their time and talent as a way to “pay it forward” and help others. Today, the meetings are presented in partnership with Penn State Great Valley’s Alumni Society. On average, 130 people register for each monthly meeting. MyCareerTransitions workshops are free but advanced registration is required. For more information or to register, visit www.mycareertransitions.com.
