Global career skills

NAU’s IGP program is based on our 5 global career skills. Students develop these skills through a strategic combination of workshops, events, and academics, then put it all together while abroad.

Each year, you participate in social and professional events to build your community and practice your skills, such as building your résumé in another language and prioritizing your wellness abroad. Explore the IGP Global Career Skills Roadmap and the associated skill-building programming events.
