First Generation Envisioning Network (FGEN) Program

The First Generation Envisioning Network (FGEN) program is a program for first-generation students to explore their personal and career-related goals with the support of their peers, Ohio State staff, and employers.

 

The program is fully virtual and runs from the week of June 6th through the week of July 25th. Students meet weekly over Zoom for about 3 hours total per week. During this time, students will participate in career development sessions, including as strategic goal setting, practice interviews, resume reviews and financial wellness sessions. The program pays up to $150 at the completion of the 8-week program.
