Soft Skill Workshops

• Grant Writing Basics
• Mindfulness Meditation
• Discovering Your Wellness

Graduate Student Support Services also offers soft skill workshops that are free of charge. The three workshops offered are Grant Writing Basics, Mindfulness Meditation, and Discovering Your Wellness.

Grant Writing Basics is a course that can be a great resume builder, and also a head start in careers involving grant writing. The goal of this 6-part online workshop is to provide an introduction to grant writing including an overview of grant search resources, common proposal components, and tips for successful proposal development. The intent of each module is to deepen the student’s familiarity and understanding of the grant writing process.

Mindfulness Meditation has the student in mind. Balancing courses, work, and other commitments during graduate school can be overwhelming. This opportunity allows the student to de-stress and refocus on what’s important. Mindfulness exercises are incorporated to allow for appreciation and peace in being aware of the present.

Discovering Your Wellness is a course designed to help you reflect, discover, and implement wellness in the personal harmony of your life based on the eight (8) dimensions of wellness. The goal of this nine (9) part course will introduce and define the broad term of wellness and will take students through physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, environmental, financial, occupational, and social wellness through awareness and active practice. Every dimension of wellness can affect a person’s quality of life. This course will help you figure out what you can do, at your own pace, in your own time, and within your own ability that can help you be the best you.
