TechnologyGoogle Docs | LinkedIn
I was able to learn more about Google Docs shared drive and the easy tricks to use them. I also learned about the importance of having a LinkedIn - how you really need to be strategic with the words that you use, and how detailed you are with the information that you provide to sell yourself online. How to Sell YourselfI had the privilege of listening to a panel of professionals in Student Affairs and a Graduate student talk about their experiences in the professional world of higher education. I learned the heart that it takes to put into the work that we do. As well as how to take care of yourself when it comes dealing with microaggressions and living in a world that is constantly a battle for fighting privilege and oppression. To me it was how do I consciously build a space for me as a professional in the future and advocate for the things I care about the most, but at the same time being able to process things on my own terms.
In addition, through resume/cover letter building and mock interviews that were also provided for Professional Development Day, I was able to build on how do I present myself professionally on paper and in person. I received feedback and will be applying them to my future uses. Student Affairs SocialOne of my last professional development was a Student Affairs Social that was hosted outside with treats and a water balloon tank. I was able to reconnect with many amazing student affairs professionals and really got to see that you can have fun while being on the field.
