Wondering what the heck professional branding is, how it can help your job search, and how to do it? Bryant & Stratton College Online can help.

Today, at 11 a.m. (PST), the school will present a free, hour-long webinar called Build Your Professional Brand. Whether you're employed, looking for work, or still in school, this virtual class promises to show you how to successfully package your "professional strengths, attributes, interests, and experience" to impress potential employers. (Free registration here.)

If you can't make today's webinar, not to worry. On September 16, at 9 a.m. (PST), the school will offer another free, hour-long webinar, called How to Build a Resilient Career. In this class, you'll get tips for making smarter choices in your career, claiming your successes (as well as owning up to your mistakes), and formulating a solid strategy when your job (or your job search) doesn't go as planned. (Free registration here.)

Both webinars will be led by Kim Dority, a career coach who has been teaching career development courses for more than a decade. A downloadable summary of the top tips presented in each webinar also will be available to attendees.
