Practicum is a supervised field experience, part of a master’s degree program.  Maximize this experience and lessons learned, whether you’ve already completed it or it’s in your future.  This is your journey, and you should own this experience as a part of it.  In this episode, I share a bit about my practicum experience with the Office of Minority Health conducting a diabetes prevention program. I also share just a few examples of how I benefited from my own practicum experience, but there are many more ways to benefit beyond what I mention.  If you are required to complete a practicum as a part of your degree, then I encourage you to listen to this episode and enroll in the workshop that is designed to help you understand and prepare.  See the link below for registration information.
