What is the purpose of the WIC Roadmap? BLUF: This guide outlines the Who, What and When in planning a WIC trip. Developed by the Fuqua Career Management Center, Corporate and Alumni Relations, the Office of Student Life as well as the MBAA, this guide will: • Maximize students’ experience and networking while planning and partaking in a WIC trip • Connect student coordinators with the appropriate administrative leads to ensure • Fuqua protocols as it pertains to corporate outreach are adhered to; • external relationships; i.e., alumni and companies, are stewarded properly, and • synergistic opportunities are identified and maximized • Make the planning process as easy as possible for student coordinators thereby minimizing efforts and confusion, and maximizing returns
Administrative Leads You Must Connect With Each club or other group planning a WIC trip must connect with the following administrators BEFORE reaching out to ANY external contacts: • The Career Management Center – students planners should specifically connect with the Sector Directorthat oversees the industry your WIC is focused on. You may also connect with Teri de Leon who is the CMC lead focused on WIC trips. They will help you with company visit requests. • Alumni Relations – student planners should specifically connect with Nicole Kempton. She can provide alumni contacts as well as facilitate the planning of an alumni happy hour. • Student Life Office – student planners should specifically connect with Ruth Tolman. She will provide you with the required liability waiver [for travel] and will be able to answer any other risk questions. WIC student planners can connect with all of the above administrators by sending one email to Week-In-Cities@fuqua.duke.edu
