GCD Career Pre-Work

Congratulations on your acceptance and welcome to the beginning of your career journey! Once deposited, each graduate student must complete their GCD Career Pre-Work (GCD stands for Graduate Career Development). This pre-work positions you for career success as you develop greater self-awareness, and fine-tune your professional presentation to employers. You can find more details on this GCD Career Pre-Work on the GCD website. Once you deposit and receive your Bentley email credentials, you will be required to complete the pre-work before orientation.
