In addition to participating on their project team, Business Fellows students attend a series of Professional Development Training seminars and workshops. Led by professional trainers and community leaders, the programs focus on practical skills and core-competencies for the workplace including:
- Team building
- Professionalism
- Presentation skills
- Leadership
- Problem solving
- Conflict management
- Communication skills
- Diversity
- Embracing change
- Job search skills
"The professional training I received from Business Fellows involved the kind of programs that some professionals pay hundreds of dollars to attend. I've used the information from the training many times, including at professional dinners, at networking receptions, and in my work in small groups in classes."
