# Professional Development

Professional development encompasses four different activities: Impact Talks, Mentor Meetings, Career Features and Career Panels. Use this guide to find out more about each activity and when and how to attend them!

## Why Professional Development?

Professional development enables students to connect and expand their experiences, skills and interest, broadening students’ perception of how they can make an impact via different career options.

Specifically, students will:

* Watch recorded interviews on selected topics, relevant to a more just climate science
* Reflect and share how they and their work may relate to those selected topics
* Expand their views about career pathways via live panel discussions with professionals in climate-related fields
* Meet with mentors with different career backgrounds
* Expand their views about making impact by browsing different career profiles


## Impact Talks

**Recorded interviews** of practitioners sharing their perspectives on topics relevant to a more just climate science. Impact talks aim to foster discussion, reflection, and self-discovery inside and outside the course.

## Mentor Meetings

Professionals with experience in various climate-related fields **meet with student groups live** to share their career experiences. Mentor meetings aim to inspire and expand students’ perspectives, during and after the course.

## Career Features

**Online spotlights** of diverse climate science practitioners to inspire students on climate actions and/or career paths. Career Features aim to inspire students in career exploration and to expand their views on making a positive impact.

## Policies

### Coursework attendance policy

Students who participate in this course will gain a certificate of completion for the coursework. Students are allowed to miss two days if necessary and if they communicate that with their teaching assistant. If there are exceptional circumstances that force a student to miss class for reasons completely beyond their control, such as severe illness, electricity blackouts, etc, they can request to get the certificate despite missing more than two days by filling out the attendance exemption form ([https://airtable.com/shrlp9uktPR5o9U28](https://airtable.com/shrlp9uktPR5o9U28)) **at least two days prior to the end of course**. Please note these requests may not be granted.

If there are exceptional circumstances that force a student to miss class for reasons completely beyond their control, such as severe illness, electricity blackouts, etc, they can request to get the certificate despite missing more than two days by filling out the Attendance Waiver ([https://airtable.com/appQ20RmRMNxUVUTd/shrKlQX3PHW8OcTtg](https://airtable.com/appQ20RmRMNxUVUTd/shrKlQX3PHW8OcTtg)) **at least two days prior to the end of course**. Please note these requests may not be granted.

### Projects attendance policy

Projects are an integral part of the Neuromatch Academy experience. Students who participate in projects and miss no more than two days of projects work will gain a certificate of completion for the projects.

If there are exceptional circumstances that make it difficult to attend the projects portion of the course, students can request to drop out of projects by filling out the project exemption form ([https://airtable.com/shrubhlgsWJ8DuA7E](https://airtable.com/shrubhlgsWJ8DuA7E)). If their request is granted, the student can continue to attend the coursework sections and gain a coursework certificate if eligible (see above), but not participate in the projects work.

If the student participates in projects but misses more than two days due to exceptional circumstances, they can request to get the projects certificate anyway by filling out the attendance exemption form ([https://airtable.com/shrlp9uktPR5o9U28](https://airtable.com/shrlp9uktPR5o9U28)) **at least two days prior to the end of course**. Please note these requests may not be granted.
