Begins: February 07, 2012

In this workshop, we will talk about the wide variety of activities that are considered networking (even though you might not think of them), we’ll help you figure out what types of activities might best suit your strengths and personality, we might even engage in some exercises so you can practice types of networking - giving you concrete tools you can use the next time you find yourself in one of those cocktail party situations. This workshop will be student driven, i.e., we will address whatever is the most useful to those who show up!
