EBSCO Provides Database on Career Readiness
EBSCO Information Services made the HBR Ascend digital learning resource from Harvard Business Review (HBR) available worldwide. It offers real-world insight and practical guidance to college students who are heading into the workforce. “Created to bridge the gap between the typical academic curriculum and on-the-job soft skills that corporations now demand, Ascend helps graduating students excel by providing them with diverse perspectives and seasoned advice from top executives, thought leaders and academics—including expert input from HBR authors and editors,” the press release notes. Content includes infographics, videos, podcasts, and short-form articles, and the focus areas are Jobs and Careers, Personal Growth, Managing and Leading, Working with Others, and Being Happy at Work. “Graduating students and early-career professionals can access the content whenever they have a few minutes to spare. The content is short, crisp, insightful, useful, and impactful to help these young professionals master new skills from anywhere, anytime,” says Sam Hainer, Harvard Business Publishing’s VP of strategy for product and innovation.
