Bank of America ALN Career Development Workshop

On February 7th, CMP collaborated with volunteers from Bank of America to host a Career Development Workshop at our CMP office. We were thrilled to welcome a total of 70 participants, including 22 dedicated BoA volunteers, 42 T&E and English class students, and 6 staff members.

During the workshop, volunteers and students engaged in small group activities focusing on English conversation practice, mock interviews, and resume critiques. At the conclusion of the event, volunteers generously shared their workplace stories and provided valuable tips for language acquisition to help our participants better adapt to American culture.

A heartfelt thank you to our volunteers from Bank of America for their time, expertise, and commitment to making this workshop a success. Together, we had a day filled with learning, growth, and fun. We look forward to more opportunities to collaborate in the future!
