Professional Life Skills

In addition to the research skills and academic career development opportunities organized by the Research Education Office, a number of 'life skills' workshops have been added to the research education curriculum.

These workshops focus on preparing graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to manage various aspects of professional life that are not typically included in formal education. Topics include communication, networking, motivation, stress management, coping techniques, and general management skills.

CFRI's courses and workshops include:
