When applying to health professions programs, pre-health students must accrue many pre-professional experiences, such as shadowing and/or clinical hours, leadership, volunteering, research, and study abroad – just to name a few. Some of the opportunities may be easier to secure than others, especially in Athens and the local community. Pre-health students may be feeling overwhelmed or unsure of where to begin building credentials for professional school programs. Attend this panel discussion to gather real-life networking and job search advice from fellow pre-health UGA students.

By attending this panel discussion, attendees will be able to:

• Define how diverse experiences in clinical, leadership, research, and community service professional school applications and readiness.
• Identify strategies to connect with professionals and clinical and non-clinical sites to gain pre-professional experiences.
• Assess and pursue meaningful positions that align with career interests and values. 
• Outline 2 next steps to prepare for networking with healthcare professionals.

To receive credit for this program, students must log in through Handshake and complete the survey at the end of the session. Access to this event will be made available 5 minutes before the scheduled start time.
