National Resource – American Association of University Women, $tart $mart Workshop
The $tart $mart workshop provides college women who are
approaching the job market with the knowledge and skills to
negotiate salaries and benefits so that they receive fair and
realistic compensation. The workshop focuses on:
- Knowing the bottom line: develop a “bare bones” budget
to pay rent, buy groceries, repay student loans, and other basic
expenses
- Salary negotiation: how to aim high and be realistic;
practice negotiation through role play exercises
- Resources for benchmarking reasonable salaries and benefits:
learn about job titles, their functions and salary ranges, the
impact of market realities on salaries; compare skills and
accomplishments to job requirements and market to target a
realistic salary range
