IMPACT HBCU Career Day
It is imperative to connect with students where they spend most of their time and build authority. One way to achieve this is by digitally providing a Virtual Career Day and multiple touchpoints through social media, online forums, and school websites. This event connects students with professionals in the eye care industry through digital platforms. This is an excellent opportunity for students to engage with role models and mentors, which can help foster their interest and ambition in optometry.
