LEADERs Information Email to PhD Students
Summer 2022 Registration
Example text for Department Chairs to send to PhD students about LEADERs. Feel free to customize based on personal experiences.
Dear PhD Students,
The LEADERs program is a certificate course designed specifically for researchers like yourself to help you overcome challenges through professional skills training and career exploration for both academic and non-academic positions.
In addition to a course to teach you important communication, project management, teaming and leadership skills, LEADERs also provides you with personal mentoring in order to give you the customized attention and guidance you need to help you navigate work challenges and career exploration.
Looking back at my own career, I wish that I had the opportunity to engage in a program like LEADERs while I was a PhD student. I strongly recommend that you enroll in this important program. The first course, Leading Self and Others (PHDL 7600), focuses on skill sets that will help you navigate your PhD research journey. This course also serves as a pre-requisite to pursuing a LEADERs internship in a later term and completing the full Leadership Certificate.
Registration for the Summer 2022 is now open and you can register directly using CRN #51848.
To find out more information about the LEADERs program, you can contact Dr. Jason Sidman at [email protected].
Thanks,
