ASPIRE to Connect

LogoMINI.jpg

ASPIRE to Connect is a half-day workshop offered each spring that is designed for industry professionals and faculty to share advice with trainees for building and maintaining professional relationships. Through practice, workshop participants learn strategies and “etiquette” for entering and exiting conversations, navigating professional conferences and receptions, and delivering a compelling “elevator speech.”

In partnership with the VU Graduate School Career Development office, we have hosted ASPIRE to Connect since 2014. Check out the archives, and save the date for next year!
