Switchboard has something for everyone!

For alumni and friends of UWS, Switchboard is a trusted community to get help when you need it, find your next associate or partner and offer opportunities and advice to the next generation of integrated health care practitioners.

For students, Switchboard is a community of your future colleagues. Join for shadowing opportunities, jobs, mentorship and advice.

For employees, Switchboard is an easy way to help members of the UWS community connect with resources, opportunities and meaningful relationships.
