Abstract

Experiential learning can facilitate the development of transferrable skills necessary for success in attaining tenure and promotion in academia. In this article, we discuss the benefits of designing and implementing an individualized professional development experience or practicum. By doing this, we describe the experiential learning component of the Accomplishing Career Transitions (ACT) Program of the American Society for Cell Biology. The ACT program aims to assist postdoctoral trainees and junior faculty from backgrounds underrepresented in STEM as they strive to transition into tenure-track positions and ultimately attain tenure at research-intensive or teaching-intensive academic institutions.

掌握自己的职业:通过体验式学习实现专业发展。
体验式学习可以促进可转移技能的发展,这是在学术界成功获得终身职位和晋升所必需的。在本文中,我们将讨论设计和实施个性化专业发展体验或实习的好处。通过这样做,我们描述了美国细胞生物学学会完成职业转型(ACT)计划的体验式学习组成部分。ACT项目旨在帮助来自STEM领域代表性不足背景的博士后实习生和初级教师,帮助他们努力过渡到终身职位,并最终在研究密集型或教学密集型学术机构获得终身职位。
