NSU Student Athlete Attends 2015 NCAA Career in Sports Forum
Roberto Baroniel
NSU baseball player Roberto Baroniel recently attended the 2015 NCAA Career in Sports Forum in Indianapolis, Ind. Along with attending the forum, Baroniel was named a finalist for the 2015 John McLendon Postgraduate Scholarship.
What is the NCAA Career in Sports Forum?
The Career in Sports Forum, an annual educational forum hosted by the NCAA, brings together 200 selected student-athletes to learn and explore potential careers in sports, with the primary focus on intercollegiate athletics.
This unique, four-day forum is designed to assist student-athletes in charting their career paths, as well as provide an opportunity to network and learn from current athletics professionals. Participants hear from a variety of speakers and panelists during large, general sessions, and throughout the program engage as well with peers in focused, small-group classroom discussions called “Color Teams.”
The cutting-edge topics brought by industry experts include: how personal values intersect with career opportunities, how behavioral styles impact individual effectiveness, the key professional and career development information that assists with transition from a student-athlete to a professional, and the role of the intercollegiate coach or athletic administrator. You will also network with your peers, as well as the key decision-makers at the campus, conference and national level of intercollegiate athletics.
