项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of the Immersion Program to Advance Career Training (ImPACT) is to provide trainees in the biomedical sciences with the knowledge and skills that they need to make informed career decisions and successfully navigate the path toward the career of their choice. To achieve this goal, we propose to develop a new training curriculum that consists of three Focus Areas: 1) Biotech, Business, and Entrepreneurship, 2) Policy, Nonprofits, and Government, and 3) Higher Education. These Focus Areas will support skills training for the full spectrum of careers both outside and inside academia. We will collaborate with internal and external partners to develop the training components for each Focus Area, which will include 1) professional skills training through workshops and optional related coursework, 2) an experiential learning opportunity that will include short-term job shadowing opportunities and/or more extensive externship opportunities, 3) networking and professional development opportunities at local universities, institutions, and businesses, and 4) a small-group coaching program to help trainees implement Individual Development Plans (IDPs) and to create a supportive and collaborative environment for the job search. We will create Career Cohorts of trainees with similar career interests and use these small groups to administer program components such as IDP meetings and job search support. This structure will allow us to make this program available to all biomedical graduate students and postdoctoral fellows at UNC. We will carefully evaluate program components and trainee outcomes with the assistance of an external evaluator, and we will disseminate our findings to our peer institutions by attending conferences, publishing our work, and creating an innovative video website to share career information with trainees nationwide.

描述（由申请人提供）：沉浸式计划推进职业培训（影响）的目的是为学员提供生物医学的学员，以做出明智的职业决策并成功地导航自己选择的职业道路。为了实现这一目标，我们建议开发一个由三个重点领域组成的新培训课程：1）生物技术，商业和企业家精神，2）政策，非营利组织和政府以及3）高等教育。这些重点领域将支持学术界内外各种职业的技能培训。 We will collaborate with internal and external partners to develop the training components for each Focus Area, which will include 1) professional skills training through workshops and optional related coursework, 2) an experiential learning opportunity that will include short-term job shadowing opportunities and/or more extensive externship opportunities, 3) networking and professional development opportunities at local universities, institutions, and businesses, and 4) a small-group coaching program to help trainees implement Individual Development Plans (IDPs) and to create a求职的支持和协作环境。我们将创建具有类似职业兴趣的学员的职业人群，并使用这些小组来管理计划组件，例如IDP会议和求职支持。这种结构将使我们能够为UNC的所有生物医学研究生和博士后研究员提供该计划。我们将在外部评估者的协助下仔细评估计划组件和学员成果，我们将通过参加会议，发布我们的工作以及创建创新的视频网站，与全国受训者分享职业信息，向同伴机构传播我们的发现。
