National Student Employment Week/Arizona Student Employment Appreciation Week

All day event
Other

National Student Employment Week (NSEW) is celebrated every second week of April, from April 9 to April 15 this year. It sets aside seven full days of recognition, appreciation, and encouragement for the student employees and employers. Every year, the second week in April is dedicated to highlighting student employment practices across colleges and universities that help undergraduate students develop invaluable practical skills and, importantly, pay for their tuition expenses.  NSEW is designed to honor students and their employers, and target university/college campuses to develop career-enhancing opportunities, increase participation, and celebrate their employed student body.

The purpose of this week is threefold:

  1. To enhance awareness of student employment and its important role in higher education experience.
  2. To recognize students who perform outstanding work while attending college.
  3. To recognize the employers who hire students for part-time positions and make the student employment program such a success.
