Professional Skills Development Workshop

The IEEE Fall 1998 Professional Skills Development Workshop

This notice is to announce the IEEE Fall 1998 Professional Skills Development Workshop. The focus of this mini-conference will be professional activities and skills needed by new engineers. Most graduating students do not have the necessary training to be effective engineers in the modern and dynamic workplace of the 90's.

Attending this workshop is the single best way to learn those skills. Being aware of what is expected of you, gives you an edge during the next job interview, makes you more competitive for shrinking bonus dollars, and helps jumpstart you into a healthy career with a solid foundation.
