PROGRAM BENEFITS: IN-PERSON [THIS OPTION IS SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE]
Featured Professional Partners who choose to come to campus on their chosen day will receive the following benefit:
- Use of the School of Accountancy conference room (Lowder 302) to facilitate scheduled, socially distant interactions with students throughout the day.
- If this option is chosen, BAP will contact the FPP in advance of the event to confirm current health and safety guidelines.
PROGRAM BENEFITS: VIRTUAL
Professional Partners who choose to be 100% virtual for their given week will receive the following benefit:
- Reservation for a Zoom (or other video conferencing tool) meeting where the preferred audience can interact with professionals and recruiters from the FPP within the preferred time frame. The join link can be shared openly or closely managed at the discretion of the FPP.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You should begin planing and advertising your event (in person or virtual) as soon as you sign up for an FPP date. Using your BAP and RAAP rosters as well as your firm “pipeline” to advertise as early as possible will result in a higher event turnout.
