Abstract

Career Pathways was launched in August 2017 as the university-wide initiative to provide professional development to graduate students. It encompasses the Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) and the Preparing Future Professionals (PFP) Certificates. The Career Pathways program prepares graduate students for successful transition into thriving careers by serving as a gateway to resources, programs, events, and planning tools for ODU graduate students and post-doctoral fellows. With the increased emphasis on recruiting and supporting post-doctoral scholars at ODU, Career Pathways has also focused on connecting post-doctoral scholars with the program and supplementing their training with career development programming.

For AY 2023/24, Career Pathways events were only offered in Spring 2024. For the Fall 2024 semester, graduate students were encouraged to access previously recorded Career Pathways events available through the YouTube channel. The monthly professional development newsletter was disseminated via email to all enrolled graduate students in both the Fall and Spring semesters. A sample newsletter is provided in Appendix C.
