Professional Development

Why does Neumont place such a large focus on professional development? Because, it's those professional soft skills that set a Neumont graduate apart.  Through our team-based projects students develop the critical communication skills and professionalism that can't be taught in a book, which means that from day one a Neumont graduate can move seamlessly from the server room to the board room and communicate with confidence and tact.

Through Neumont's professional development courses, students have a chance to focus on the future, and take control of their careers." — Laura Parson, Career Services Program Manager

professional development courses at Neumont:

  • Principles of Communication — Explore the foundations of solid career communication including resumes, email best practices, interview techniques and more.
  • Collaborative and Interpersonal Communications— Students actively develop and apply necessary skills for successful interpersonal interactions and group work by learning principles relating to group dynamics, leadership, and the collaborative lifecycle.
  • Human Relations and Personality Development- Develop and refine the necessary skills for their academic and professional success including time management, research skills, ethics, professionalism, and integrity in the workplace.
  • Business Fundamentals - A survey of topics like human resources, finance, client relations, organizational structure, business law, and production.

All of these courses focus on conflict resolution, presentation skills, and creating professional correspondence, and strengthening communication skills in a professional environment. Does it work?  It appears too considering that our Industry Partners who attend Career Week tell us that they would like to hire every student they interviewed, but usually our students have more than one offer, so it can be pretty competitive for employers.
