Network Night

First of all, sorry this blog post is so late! But better late than never right?

Second, a HUGE thank you to the four professionals who came to our event.
Thank you to Ryan from Scenic View Academy, Andrea from Shriners Hospital, and Laura and Coventry from Heritage School. We really appreciate your time and advice!

From Left to Right: Ryan, Andrea, Laura, and Coventry. 

The event started off with pizza and chatting/networking with those around you, whether or not you sat next to a professional. (It is just as important to network with your fellow TR students as it is to network with professionals in the field!)

After pizza, each of the professionals got up and explained a little about the organization and population they work with.

Heritage Schools is a facility for At-Risk Youth

Scenic View Academy works with adults with learning disabilities

Shriners Hospital in SLC treats children with orthopaedic conditions

Then it was time for a little recreation of our own! The planning committee had put together a few "Minute-to-Win-It" games to play as ice breakers.  Once we played the games we had a few minutes to talk with the professionals. Ryan, Andrea, Laura, and Coventry had a lot of great advice and stories to share with us.

At the end of the event, we had a few minutes to ask the professionals questions as a group.
