This first oral presentation will be given on Monday, January 28, Center Campus, 6-10 p.m., C-105. The topic will be about some aspect concerning your career that you have found interesting. It can be an item that you find as you search the internet about your career (potential earnings, current wage offerings, number of opportunities available, etc.) or it can be an observation that you have made in your present career climb. You may use notes. You might not have to do any research. You should be concentrating on your presentation skills without having to worry about learning/researching your topic. Be sure to at least review Chapter 13 prior to the presentation date.

The comments in parentheses are provided to give you an idea of what to look for as you view your video and/or what to think about as you prepare for your presentation.

Profane language, sexist comments, questionable taste, or derogatory comments are not acceptable.
