Ashford University | MAPSY Conference Assignment Eric Klein

Hi, students, Dr. Klein again. As you know, there's been a heavy emphasis throughout the program on

professional development and career opportunities. One of the most fulfilling parts of my job is the ability to attend

both regional and national conferences in the field of Psychology. Typically what I get from conferences is the

ability to network, meet other professionals, the ability to share my work with others, and the ability to learn from

what's happening in the field from other professionals who are doing some really exciting things.

This week, we have an exciting assignment for you, which is to create a poster presentation and attend a virtual

conference with your classmates. The purpose of this assignment is for you to learn from one another and also be

able to share an aspect of your work here in the program that you're most proud of with your fellow students. My

hope in this assignment is that you feel further inspired to attend conferences and other professional development

opportunities, where you can further your learning and knowledge in the field of psychology.
