CSTEP Alumni Insights Speaker Series

CSTEP Alumni Insights is a monthly series for our CSTEP alumni to connect with and empower our CSTEP students at their alma mater. Alumni are invited to share insights with CSTEP students during a one-hour workshop inspired by their careers, personal journeys, and expertise.

We seek to build connections and develop professional and personal skills for our students. Our alumni are the best representation of our motto: “To whom much is given, much is expected.”

We look forward to strengthening our partnerships with CSTEP alumni around the globe. Complete this form to let us know what topic you will be sharing with CSTEP students.

Workshop Format:

• One alumni presentation per month.
• 60 minutes (consisting of a five minute introduction, 40 minute presentation, and 15 minute Q&A).
• Presentations will be given virtually on Zoom or in-person according to your preference.
