Professional Development is Everywhere (NAFSA 2013)

ByDr. Cate Brubaker .

Since I’m web conferencing in for my part of a NAFSA presentation, and technology tends to fail when you need it most, I decided to create a webcast as a backup plan. If you couldn’t attend the NAFSA session you can watch my part below (11 minutes).

After sharing the role of professional development in my career (so far!), I share 5 tips for thinking outside the workshop and finding professional development everywhere. Enjoy!
