它是如何工作的
The PPD program provides an environment where each student can link academic content in their curriculum with career planning, extracurricular activities and leadership 发展. Each student has the opportunity to build a strong professional network, face social and business challenges, and practice meaningful leadership.
Throughout the PPD program, students undertake ongoing self-assessment, build their emotional intelligence, strengthen team-building 能力, engage in fieldwork/career preparation experiences, learn to take advantage of coaching/mentoring activities, and formulate 发展al action plans and a leadership portfolio. 在这个过程中， they discover strengths and areas for improvement, nurture their passions, and facilitate 他们自己真正的领导之旅.
The 个人 and 专业发展 journey consists of two bookend courses (PPD 101 and PPD 401), which are consistent for every student throughout the program. These two courses provide introductory and capstone experiences that build the foundation PPD项目. 此外，学生可以选择该领域的一学分课程 of leadership competency and career focus, to customize the program to their specific 发展需求. 一学分的选修课程每学期都有变化，并且是讲授的 主题专家.
The PPD Series begins with 个人 and 专业发展 101, which adds value and depth to your learning program by explicitly targeting personal and professional competency assessment, 发展, practice and evaluation with a strong emphasis on self-awareness, working in teams, and an introduction to emotional intelligence 能力.
