Part II: Refining Your Strategy (Follow-up to the Part I Entry and Mid-career Seminar)

A more interactive session, this seminar builds on and develops the information previously presented. It is intended for those who have begun to engage and act upon the earlier material. Through in-depth discussion and interactive exercises, attendees focus on identifying and overcoming barriers, developing and adjusting career development strategies, and exploring specific opportunities and resources. Participants are encouraged to bring their individual questions, as well as insights, to this small group, participatory session.
