As part of an Introductory Management class, students are required to attend a professional meeting(s) off campus. Although challenging, most students have considered this exercise extremely beneficial. The student identifies, researches, contacts, and then attends a professional organization meeting relevant to their desired profession. As a result, students have developed networking skills; acquired contacts; received scholarships; served as liaisons between professional chapters; engaged in “pro bono” work, and most importantly, led to the development of greater self-efficacy as it relates to their professional development. Student illustrations, reflective papers, comments, feedback and suggestions for faculty will be presented.
