Program 2021

The 2021 NOW Conference will be held virtually on Friday, June 3rd from 9am - 5pm. This year's theme is "Innovate, Collaborate, Grow!" and we have designed a program full of career resources, skills, and inspiration that will help you to be successful today and in the future at Berkeley (and beyond). While we are still in the virtual format, we hope to provide you with the same dynamic and interactive learning experience that you have come to expect from the NOW Conference.  Join Chancellor Carol Christ, Janet Napolitano and many others for this fun and impactful day, designed just for you and your career development.
