“Exploring and acting upon one’s educational goals should definitely not be a solo process.”

In fact, I was quoted as saying just that in a recent company press release (it does sound press releasey, doesn’t it?). But, really, I meant what I said.

That’s why I thought I’d share with you some of the interactive ’support systems’ that CollegeSurfing has recently put in place to help you find the right school and career path for you.

> There’s this blog… but you knew that already.

> Then there’s “A Minute with SpaBeautySchools,” another blog that offers a refreshing look at the world of beauty and wellness. If alternative health, holistic healing, and beauty and glamour excite you, add it to your bloglist for sure!

> Then there’s you — our User-Generated Content portal at CollegeSurfing.com to be more accurate. Here, whether you’re an aspiring, current, or former student, educator or industry expert, we invite you to share your experiences, questions, and advice. Check it out and go create your profile.

> Then there’s Career “Ed,” CollegeSurfing’s MySpace persona. Ed’s got an entertaining and informational blog of his own, which riffs on pop culture, career trends, and school stories, along with numerous links to career articles and polls. Similarly, SpaBeautySchools.com’s MySpace presence highlights unique career trends and profiles of top industry professionals within the beauty and wellness fields.

> Don’t forget your offline life. Family, good friends, colleagues, someone you know or get to know in the industry of your interest, the list goes on and on. Nothing compares to the opportunities that arise as the result of talking up your endeavors. That’s what that whole networking thing is about.

And, there you have it! Go forth and surf… And, please do drop me a line to let me know what you think and how else we can help. We’re listening!
