  The Department of Advancement is hiring students to work as STUDENT CALLERS with the UPEI Annual Fund "Calling on You" Phonathon Program.
  Student Callers hold an extremely important position within the University and gain valuable work experience that will help them throughout their lives. Through their work with the Phonathon, students learn to interact with people of all backgrounds and interests, communicate ideas and information clearly, and learn valuable negotiation techniques. Plus, they raise much needed funds for their University.
