Workshop | Recognizing Strengths and Building Community

If you've completed workshop 2, or feel uneasy about networking, isolated in your career transition, or unsure where to find support, then this workshop is for you. It is designed for people saying, “I don’t know who can help me get what I want."

If you are a grad student who has already made a clear decision about the direction you would like to take your career, and you not only feel comfortable with the idea of networking, but you have already taken steps toward creating a community of support, then this workshop is not for you.

We won't exclude anyone wishing to attend our online workshops, but please know that the workshop is designed for graduate students who have not yet graduated. Not all information might be relevant to your circumstances.

The workshop will be run by Next Draft LLC: Gabrielle Filip-Crawford (PhD, Social Psychology), Jessica Shropshire (PhD, Social Psychology), and Christina Spiker (PhD, Visual Studies). For our longer bios, please visit our main website! www.nextdraftllc.com.

The workshop is a blend of explanation, guided activities, and discussion on Zoom. We will provide digital materials for the guided activities in advance! We have planned for 1 hour and 30 minutes, followed by 30 minutes of Q&A. There is a limit of 30 participants. The workshop will not be recorded.

We encourage all grad students attending to apply for professional development money through their university. This could be through your school, department, or bodies like the grad student senate. Still out of luck? Get in touch with us. If we have PIF donations, we might be able to help.
