Career Communities

Career communities are employee-led groups made up of staff across the university who are doing similar work or have similar career interests. The purpose of these groups is to network, strengthen competencies, promote innovation, and share best practices. Career communities allow VCU staff to lead career development for themselves and their peers.

Career communities are established around the VCU job family structure, but employees can join any career community they are interested in. Information about joining a career community can be found on its specific page.

For events hosted by career communities and more career development related events happening at VCU, consult the calendar below.
