Enhance your Career Portfolio
|
|
|
It is time to update your Learning Beyond the Classroom portfolio.
For instance, did you participate in a first year seminar? …a
learning community? Were you a T.A.? Did you perform
community service? You have done lots of experiential learning, so
take some time and submit reports on activities already completed. May 2022 graduates: remember that you must have completed the program by the end of January 2022 in order to earn the LBC certificate.
If you have submitted a report, check and see if you have been asked to supply more information. If you find that you have received “0” points on a report, see the comments section for an explanation. If requested, resubmit your report with the required information so that your LBC points can be updated. Do
you need financial support to pursue an experiential learning
activity? Are you going to a conference? Studying
abroad? Doing community service? Apply for an LBC grant. For details on the application process: Click Here
If you have questions, contact LBC at lbc@purdue.edu

recently learned about health equity and inequity from Purdue
University's Dr. Jasmine Gonzalvo in the College of Pharmacy and Dr.
Natalia Rodriguez in the Department of Public Health.
Unfortunately, research is still not conducted evenly for women.
Many of our cohort commented that they now know the importance of
advocating for themselves in the medical field and to change doctors if
they are not being heard. |
