MEDIA ADVISORY: Start Smart Workshop at UT Tyler

The University of Texas at Tyler Office of Career Services, in partnership with AAUW, will present the $tart $mart Workshop Saturday, Feb. 20, Garnesha Beck, career services coordinator, announced.

The event will be 9:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. in the UT Tyler Robert R. Muntz Library, room 401.

“The workshop will be a great opportunity for UT Tyler students, alumni and the East Texas community to sharpen their negotiation skills,” said Beck. “The $tart $mart workshop provides women and men the knowledge and skills when approaching the job market to negotiate salaries and benefits so that they receive fair and realistic compensation.”

The $tart $mart Campus Initiative was created and piloted in the fall of 2007 by the WAGE Project, a non-profit national organization dedicated to the elimination of the gender wage gap.
