Student Advisory Board

The Student Advisory Board (SAB) was established in May 2020 to provide advice and recommendations to BHER’s leadership with the goals of supporting organizational priorities and initiatives as they relate to preparing students and creating job prospects for the future of work. The purpose of the BHER Student Advisory Board is to provide a student perspective on strategic priorities and initiatives, connect BHER to students on campuses, and provide relevant expertise on potential barriers for students engaging with BHER stakeholders.
