Peer Educators

When you visit the Career Center, you will most likely meet a Peer Educator. The Peer Educators are here to help you get started.

Addie, Tamara, and Wanda are students like you who are familiar with the career development process and can speak to you about:

  • Career Center resources
  • Resumes
  • Cover-letters
  • Job search strategies

They can also just listen as you begin sorting out what your next steps should be.

You may also see Addie, Tamara, or Wanda on campus as they share the resources of the Career Center.

You can contact the Peer Educators by stopping in the Career Center, by e-mail us at careerpeers@csun.edu or by calling (818) 677-2878.
