Wellness to Workforce: Integrating NACE Competencies for Holistic Success
Explore Belmont University’s digitized journey (Suitable) merges Occupational Wellness with Career Readiness. Learn how we guide students through Explore, Prepare, Connect, and Flourish pillars, while scaling NACE Ready Assessments for authentic skill validation.
  • Summary

    Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at Belmont University’s innovative "WELL Core" and "My Career Plan" initiatives. Through a strategic partnership with Suitable, we moved beyond fragmented engagement by building a unified, mobile-first solution that guides students from their first year to post-graduation.

    In this session, we demonstrate how this allows Suitable to measure students' progress across four developmental pillars, earn points/badges, and engage in meaningful reflection. We also explore how to scale observer feedback using the NACE Ready Assessment to validate skills across internships and student employment. Discover how to create a seamless ecosystem connecting wellness, co-curricular experiences, and career competency."

    Following this program, you will be able to:

    • Create a model for your institution centered on well-being which helps students engage in career planning and build career readiness skills.
    • Develop or enhance a framework for student career planning that includes short-term action steps, reflective activities, and engagement in meaningful experiences.
    • Embed NACE Ready Assessments directly into internships and student employment to provide scalable, data-driven competency feedback.
