Designing Your Life Virtual Event

Friday, May 10

The Center for Faculty Enrichment (CAFE) and the Quality Enhancement Plan Advisory Board invite ALL faculty and staff to discover life design, a framework of the new Post-Graduate Success Initiative QEP.

On Monday, May 13th, Institute participants will explore ways to implement Life Design in the varied contexts of work with students, including 1:1 mentoring and advising, small and large group co-curricular support, and teaching in Civitae and in academic majors. The schedule will include a keynote, concurrent learning sessions, implementation work sessions, and a celebratory reception to end the day.

All are invited to also attend a pre-Institute virtual event on Friday, May 10th.  Inspired by Stanford’s Life Design Studio, participants will immerse themselves in life design as students, applying life design to their own life and vocational wayfinding.

By the end of the Institute, all participants should be ready to prototype activities and discussions that help students consider their life design.
