SAA Networking Skills Dinner 2026
Level up your networking skills at the SAA's Networking Skills Dinner!
Does the idea of professional networking intimidate you? You’re not alone! Join us for dinner and learn valuable tips from successful UO alumni. Enjoy an evening where we’ll cover topics such as:
- Engaging talking points for networking
- Dressing "business casual" for different events
- How to interact with potential employers
- How to follow up after a networking event
Your registration includes a complimentary meal, plus entry into a drawing for fun prizes.
We’ll also have a photographer at the event offering free professional headshots for those who want one. So, be sure to come promptly at 5:30 p.m. dressed for your photo!
Now is your chance to gain confidence in networking and build strong connections within the UO community!
More information regarding the alumni attendees will be available on our Instagram page and in upcoming email reminders!
