APIDA Career Development Conference 2019 will be co-hosted by Asian Focus NC and NC State Asian Student In Alliance. This year’s conference theme is “Breaking the Bamboo Ceiling” where we will be focusing on leadership, professional, and personal development of APIDA individuals as we step into our careers. The term “Bamboo Ceiling” was coined to address the barriers faced by many APIDA professionals in the workplace, which include but are not limited to: racism, under-representation, stereotypes and the model minority myth.

At the APIDA Career Development Conference, we hope to educate attendees on this topic and provide solutions to overcome these barriers. This one-day conference will be on April 6th, 2019 at Poole College of Management. The event is FREE and open to all individuals interested in the mission of our conference including students, professionals, and community members. Food will be provided to attendees. Please stay tuned for a more logistical details to our event!
