A conference just for students

Schedule
Saturday, March 5th
10:00 am - 11:00 am: Keynote Address - "Developing a Rich, Full, Meaningful Career" - Jim Hill, OTR/L
Many people focus time and energy on landing the perfect job. The idea, of course, is the perfect setting that matches your sense of passion and purpose will result in a fulfilling and meaningful career. But it’s usually more complicated than this. Your first job may not be your ideal job. Your ideal job may have unanticipated disappointments. You may find a job that supports your lifestyle but does not feel that meaningful. The keynote this year will focus on factors that you can develop and bring to any job to make it more meaningful and fulfilling. Skills that can help you be more resilient in difficult times and maximize opportunities throughout your career.
