Professional Development Offline(you attend live) Industry Related Workshop SPM 1006 Spring 2020

Professional Development is a life-long process of finding ways to make yourself better.  I would encourage you to take ownership in your education on various topics. The info is out there and many times FREE in the form of actual live in-person events+workshops!

For this assignment/project you will be seeking out and completing some type of OFFLINE INDUSTRY/CAREER RELATED WORKSHOP of your choice. Please note, OFFLINE means you have to actually go and attend something live and in-person.  See full instructions below..

Step 2: In order to find workshops you can attend on or off campus, first you need to search+navigate to some websites that can help you find these events. Many times these are events are FREE.
