the PCLP model, a small group of postdocs would meet once a month for a structured
series of peer-led career preparation steps, from self-assessment, to skill identification,
to informational interviewing, and resume/CV refining. The first exercise for PCLP
is the Planning Your Path workshop on Feb 15th.
