Identifying, Developing, and Presenting Your Transferable Skills

Transferable skills are skills that you learn in one setting that can be applied to work in many other settings. As a PhD candidate you develop competencies that can be applied to interesting and challenging work beyond the tenure track, inside or outside the academy. In this session, you will have the opportunity to identify these skills, learn ways to develop them as a graduate student, and prepare to communicate your skills to potential employers.
