The University of South Alabama College of Medicine’s Division of Medical Education and Student Affairs is hosting a student advising workshop on Jan. 10, 2014, from 9 a.m. to noon at the USA Medical Center Conference Center.
The special seminar, titled “Medical Student Career Advising: Helping Students Find Their Fit,” will feature Jeanette L. Calli, M.S., program manager for Careers in Medicine at the Association of American Medical Colleges.
The workshop will include small group activities that focus on career planning in medical schools and advising students on their specialty choice. Participants will have the opportunity to discuss case studies of advising scenarios as well as provide feedback to each other on common student dilemmas.
The workshop is open to the public but geared toward College of Medicine faculty and staff involved in advising medical students.
Calli has a master’s degree in higher education with a concentration in career development and counseling. She has worked in career development and student affairs for more than 15 years.
