ChemIDP: Planning for Your Career

Individual Development Plans (IDPs) have been used to support the career and professional development of individuals in setting career and training milestones through an iterative process of self-assessment, skill-strengthening, career exploration, and goal setting. This workshop will help participants to use the IDP framework to develop a tentative career plan that reflects their background, experiences, and career aspirations. This event is free, part of the ACS Spring and Fall meetings, for ACS Members and non-members.

The ChemIDP workshop may also be hosted by institutions for their students and postdocs for a fee. If you are interested in hosting this workshop, please contact Leslie Reynoso at l_reynoso@acs.org.
