Beyond Prof General Events
Open to the public. These events are an opportunity for you to learn more about what you need to do to prepare to leave academia. Leaving academia can feel overwhelming. It’s a big decision, and you want to make sure that you’re making the right choice. Plus it takes a lot of time (about 6 months to find a job).
Join L. Maren Wood, PhD (Director & CEO of Beyond the Professoriate) for this interactive webinar so that you can be confident in your decision and knowledgeable about the steps you need to take. You’ll also learn more about Beyond Prof’s programming and how it can help you in your career transition.
