Are you recently tenured, or have you been contemplating the path to becoming a Full Professor? This summer, we invite you to join us in Chicago for a Professional Development Workshop (PDW) for mid-career scholars, entitled "Navigating the Mid-Career Stage: Career Advancement and Impact in the OMT Field," sponsored by the OMT Division! The session is scheduled to take place on Saturday, August 10, 08:00-09:30 AM in the Fairmont Chicago. This PDW offers an opportunity to learn from senior scholars who have successfully navigated this career stage, as well as from peers who are currently pursuing the same goal. By participating, you will not only gain valuable insights and strategies but also make new connections that will help you thrive in your career in the OMT field.
