Cengage Adds Career Resources to Subscription Service

college graduate looking up at potential careers

Cengage is adding a free Career Center for subscribers of Cengage Unlimited, the company's course materials subscription service. The resource combines career information with tutorials, tips and other tools designed to help bridge the gap from college to the workforce.

In the Career Center, students can explore potential career paths and research salaries, growth trends and in-demand skill sets. Self-paced career-readiness tutorials give students a way to brush up on soft skills as well as job search and interview techniques. The center also includes résumé and portfolio-building tools.

Launched last year, Cengage Unlimited provides unlimited access to the company's digital course materials, including e-books, online homework access codes and study guides, for a fixed price of $119.99 per semester or $179.99 per year. For more information, visit the Cengage site.
