Week 3, Day 2

Welcome to the last week of the externship! We hope you have had a great last two weeks and are excited about everything you have accomplished. We have a pretty busy week so let’s try to finish strong!

Today and Wednesday we will have exit interviews: 15-minute time slots for each person. This is an opportunity to reflect on the program and give us feedback. Please remember to sign-up here.

We will have Expert Speakers Conor and Malayka Gormally today at 12:00 pm PT | 2:00 pm CT | 3:00 pm ET.

On Thursday we will have our Final Discussion on Shaken Brain at 10:00 am PT | 12:00 pm CT | 1:00 pm ET. We hope that you enjoyed reading the book and that we have a fun discussion. We will then begin wrapping up the externship with our Final Showcases starting at 12:30 pm PT | 2:30 pm CT | 3:30 pm ET. These will be 15 minute slots where each extern will present on their experiences. We recommend preparing a slides and talking about your newsletter synopsis and projects.
