Free COVID-19 testing is now available to Chabot-Las Positas Community College District students, employees, and the community. Appointments are required for COVD-19 testing and can be made at norcalcovid19testing.com.

Due to unhealthy air quality, the campus will be closed on August 24th, 2020. All virtual services and classes will continue as normal.

CLPCCD email is currently unavailable for some District and College users. ITS has identified the problem and is working diligently to resolve the issue. We do not have an estimated time of resolution of this matter. We will update you as necessary. Thank you for your patience.

COVID-19 Response: Las Positas College has transitioned to Online Classes and Services. Details and Resources Here.

The Zone Student Portal is unavailable. However, you can still access Class-Web and Zonemail.

Congratulations Class of 2020! Although the in-person commencement ceremony is being postponed to a later date, you deserve to be honored and celebrated now!

Employee Email: Due to multiple email issues, the deadline for submitting grades has been extended to 11:00 pm Thursday, May 28, 2020. ITS understands the difficult timing of these issues for communicating with students and is working to restore the problem server as quickly as possible. These servers will be replaced over the Summer.

Faculty & Staff Resources

As College faculty and staff, you play a critical role in the lives of our students. Because of this, they may come to you with all types of questions including:

  • "How do I choose a major?"
  • "How do I prepare for an interview?"
  • "How do I write a resume or a cover letter?"
  • "How do I find an Internship?"
  • "What are my career options?"

If you find yourself looking for additional ways to advise students on these questions, there are people who can help. The Career and Transfer Center, Counseling Department, Work-Based Learning and Tri-Valley Career Center complement each other. Together, we provide information, opportunities, and resources that can assist students in finding the information they need to answer these and other career-related questions.

Consider us all as a resource. We want to help you help your students. As such, we offer our services as well as number of links that can make it easier on you.

In-Class Presentations

The staff at the Career and Transfer Center and Tri-Valley Career Center are more than happy to come to your classroom on campus to give presentations and to provide job preparation information to students. We can touch on a number of topics, including those below. We can also customize the presentation to specific industries or occupations, as well to your available class time - in order to make it more applicable to your class.

  • Intro to Career Center
  • Resume and Cover Letter Writing
  • Interview Preparation
  • Internship Search
  • Job Fair Preparation
  • Soft Skills
  • Networking & Informational Interviews
  • LinkedIn

Events

The Career and Transfer Center offers a number of hiring events throughout the year. General job and internship fairs include employers from a diverse set of industries – both public and private. Smaller, or mini-job fairs, focus on one department. Employers at these smaller events are looking to hire students with a specific skill set and background. Additionally, if there are any employer contacts you think would be interested in participating in our events please let us know. We are always looking to grow our employer list.

As time goes on, ideas for additional events could be career panels, employer presentations or networking breakfasts. If you have ideas or suggestions, we would love to hear them.

Also, attendance at events such as these is a great extra credit opportunity for students and we are more than happy to sign off on any paperwork or help create extra credit exercises for any of our events.

Internships

Internship experiences are a valuable method of gaining work experience in a particular field while earning a degree or certificate. It is an important step to link your classroom to the work world. Internships are typically one-time, semester-long work experiences related to a student's field of study. The College is developing a network of employers willing to host and hire student interns. Faculty play an important role in this process. Your connections to area businesses as well as you students makes you an invaluable link in the chain.

Encourage your students and employer contacts to visit Las Positas College Internship & Job Board to connect with each other. Please contact the Career and Transfer Center or Work-based Learning team to learn more.

Guest Speakers or Tours

Guest speakers and facility tours can enhance your lesson plan and reinforce what you are teaching in the classroom. If you would like a guest speaker or find a facility that can give your students a tour to enhance your lesson plan, please contact the Work-based Learning team.

Career Curriculums

Linking the classroom to careers does not need to be contained to work-based learning experiences or job search strategies. It is important to include activities and career skill development throughout a student’s time at Las Positas College. Below are a few links to help you help your students develop 21st Century work-place skills.

  • Vocational Information Center

Teaching Soft Skills

Employers are looking for both the specific skills to get a job done AND the soft skills that help their employees keep their job. They want to know candidates have the qualities of a productive employee who will fit well in their organization. In short, they are looking for team players who can solve problems, organize their work, work as a team and communicate effectively.

As their instructor, you can help them by integrating soft skill development into your lesson plans or reinforce them in your classroom expectations. Below are links to help you help your students develop soft skills.
