Topics to cover on Day 1:

1. Is your name spelled correctly on the list above?
2. My name is Mrs. Frascht – pronounced like Frost.
3. Always check in with your program instructor before coming to Career Center, especially if your Career Center session is at the beginning of the day or immediately after lunch.
4. Seating – pick a seat to sit at all semester.  No changing computers thru the semester if possible.
5. You may wipe down keyboards and mouse before using if you wish…don’t rely on someone else to sanitize the area for you.
6. Computer log ins – passwords for alvacc users on computers are alvacc and the computer number displayed on bottom left corner of monitor such as alvacc01.
7. If prompted, do not run any updates on the computers.
8. Only use Chrome for a browser during Career Center. Do not change any settings within Google Chrome.
9. You will use Gmail and Google Drive within the browser to login but do NOT use the Chrome profile button. Confusing I know but there is a difference in what happens to the saved bookmarks. Do not log in to any Apple iCloud, Mac Mail or other personalization accounts except Google Drive (Sheets, Docs, etc.) and Gmail. Everyone uses the same Mac user account so please do not customize the user account to your settings which means do NOT add you Google profile setting.  Do NOT change the Apple ID, Microsoft User or Adobe User account  or computer settings. Are you able to log in to the Google Drive folder I created for you?
10. The Career Center is website – www.nwtech.edu/alvacc/. I will have announcements each week for you to refer to for instructions on the activities and necessary websites.
11. Assessments & Credentials – Students will complete assessments such as Certiport, ODCTE, PLTW, and ASE within Career Center.
12. Scholarships – will be listed on Career Center website.  Assistance with applications may be available.
13. Employment opportunities – will be listed on Career Center website.  Assistance with applications may be available.
14. Learning Styles – Students will complete a learning styles activity at https://learningstylequiz.com/. When you complete the questionnaire be sure to enter your Northwest Tech or school email address so the results are emailed to you!! I will share the results with your instructor. I will be requiring you to print a copy of the results which include your first and last name. I will also have you create a PDF file that you will store in a designated location on the computer and then upload to the Google Drive folder I created for you.
    There are three base learning styles: Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic (Tactile). There are 16 personality based learning styles (can be compared to the 16Personalities.com website). You may learn more about both the learning styles and personality styles at https://learningstylequiz.com/learning-styles/.
    Any guesses what my learning and personality styles are? I am a Visual-ISTJ learner. My results are available at https://learningstylequiz.com//quiz/results/Visual-ISTJ/1609141?confirm=sent.
15. WorkKeys testing – Students will complete three ACT WorkKeys Career Readiness exams – Graphic Literacy, Workplace Documents, and Applied Math. For more information, visit http://nwtech.edu/alvacc/workkeys/. Your login username is usually your first and last name all lowercase and not spaces. Your password is the six digit number representing your birthdate such as 010907 for January 9, 2007. I had to use a different format for a few of you. I will have you log in and complete any of the information I did not complete for you on your Profile. Do NOT change any information I entered without visiting with me first.
