Join Nancy and Katrina as they distill best practices, learning, and stories from two years of managing practicums during a pandemic. Success during a pandemic meant maximum flexibility and innovation to ensure great outcomes for the students. Learn about some of these changes that we might consider continuing in post-pandemic times. Discuss how they foresee the future of practicums. Use their lessons learned as key take-aways for how we shape practicums going forward.
The 7 post-degree diplomas at Western University all have a required practicum component after two terms of fully online coursework. Nancy and Katrina have over 25 years of combined experience working in career development at Western University.
