Vision

SCNO strives to be a leading consulting provider for nonprofits with sustainable organization and community impacts while redefining student education experiences through meaningful, engaging work.

What is Consulting?

SCNO members use their training, education, and experience to give valuable business advice to our clients. Consulting is just that - problem-solving for a vast variety of deliverables and communicating the next steps for a client to be successful.
/

Make an Impact

SCNO has 5-9 nonprofit client projects each year that members are placed on. By offering pro-bono services to organizations in need, we can help further their causes and affect lives in the surrounding communities. SCNO members apply their education outside of the classroom to make an impact.

Gain Professional Experience

SCNO members go through consultant training before working on a consulting project. These trainings include case skills, soft skills, and technical skills alike, but most of what members learn is through the hands-on problem-solving throughout the project engagement.
SCNO also offers professional development workshops to get members ready for interviews and a future career. Guest speakers and networking opportunities have included Deloitte, PWC, KPMG, EY, McKinsey, IBM, and more.
