Free membership to NRF Student Association

The Miller Center for Retailing has recently partnered with the National Retail Federation Foundation, which dedicates its efforts to career paths, growth opportunities, financial rewards, and ability for creative thinking within the retail industry.

Because of this partnership, all currently enrolled Gators are eligible to join the NRF student association for free.

Here’s what you get: 

Exclusive education and networking opportunities to begin a career in retailing. If you’ve already chosen retail as a career, you’ll benefit from the networking and industry information within this group. If you’re not sure whether retail is right for you, join anyway to learn more about the industry and the opportunities available for students in a variety of majors – not just business majors.

 Other benefits include:

·         Unique networking opportunities with retail recruiters and retail industry innovators that can help you find jobs or internships

·         The opportunity to be nominated for a $5,000 scholarship from the NRF Foundation’s Ray M. Greenly Fund

·         Exclusive membership in the NRFSA’s LinkedIn group, which is open to NRFSA members and all retail recruiters

·         Updates on the latest research and news that shape the evolving retail industry – good to know!

·         An ability to attend Retail’s BIG Show in New York at the reduced ‘student’ rate. THE retail event…

 
Affiliation with the National Retail Federation sets students apart. After you join, be sure to include “National Retail Federation Student Association member” as an item on your resume!
