At the NCAA's Career in Sports Forum, which takes place June 2-5 in Indianapolis, "attendees will hear from keynote speakers and panelists, highlighted by LaChina Robinson, former women’s basketball player at Georgia Tech and current TV analyst; Stevie Baker-Watson, director of athletics at DePauw University; and Craig McPhail, vice president of athletics and club sports at Lees-McRae College," notes an article. "The forum provides student-athletes interactive experiences with successful individuals in the sports business and a peek into their day-to-day duties and responsibilities."

It adds, "The participants also learn best practices for gaining employment and gathering a better understanding of what future expectations will be once they get a job in sports at the Next Steps Fair, hosted in the NCAA Hall of Champions."
