It had training workshops, software development competitions, mentoring, networking, presentations, awards and cash prizes.
Development activities include: interactive workshops focussing on CV writing, speech writing, leadership, networking and presentation skills.
Attendance at a UK DDP conference (Manchester, June 2012) was also an opportunity for data collection, networking and presentation of interview findings including a video-recorded discussion and debate about key issues in relation to a potential trial.
Evidently, there's also time for networking, idea presentations and discussions.
Lack of professional skills training: Current training fails to teach skills that can be applied to both academic and non-academic careers, including people management, networking, writing, and presentation skills.
While there's no one model, many programs weave in pre-job classes that discuss career skills (self-presentation, networking, organizational analysis) and post-job seminars that sort out how it went.
We also talked about many aspects of going to a conference from submitting an abstract and preparing beforehand to giving poster presentations, networking, and visiting the exhibit hall.
The badge allows access to sessions, panels, events, presentations, networking events, trade show, job fair, you name it.
Through two days packed with panels, interviews, speakers, networking opportunities, and presentations, the conference inspired and motivated us by bringing in some of the most influential changemakers in the world.
The meeting will include plenary sessions, research talks, poster presentations, networking opportunities, and professional development workshops as well as the society's business meeting and a working session of the advisory board.
