Mayo’s Clinic: Pursuing the ABCs of Your Professional Development
Wednesday, 01 June 2011 09:10By Dr. Fred Mayo, CHE, CHT
Activities, books and conferences are just three ways to spark your own learning and experience personal and professional growth this summer.
Last month, we discussed using field trips and site visits effectively, and now that the summer months are here, it is time to consider how we replenish our information bank, our instincts and our personal and professional insights. We will discuss the ABCs and the DEF’s of professional development, this month the ABCs—activities, books, and conferences—and next month the DEFs. What better time to think about your professional development when so many of our students are graduating and moving into new phases of their lives. A great time to consider new beginnings in our lives and what we can or want to do to make these new beginnings grow and prosper!
