Career Planning for Plant Scientists with Sarah Blackford

About this Webinar: 

Planning your career is a bit of a contradiction in terms since it is hard to plan something which is influenced by so many other outside factors. However, theories suggest that there are particular factors and activities, dispositions and strategies which can help you to develop and progress your career in order to achieve success. In this seminar, we will look at some of these key elements and different ways to approach your career, whether you plan a career within or outside of academia.
