I have asked that students take the time to look at some of the images depicted/shown on some of the businesses that are similar to their job descriptions. They may access a variety by checking on the internet. For example; if they are a computer analysis, they could look up businesses that fall under this category.

Students are looking for a symbol, design, or a picture to place on their business cards.
