## Work/Place Themes
While there are many opportunities for learning and growth while working on campus, the Work/Place program identifies three key categories, and a variety of proficiencies, that students can focus on.
Throughout the program, students can refer to these themes to reflect and frame their experiences.
**Personal Development**: Developing knowledge and skills important to personal growth. This includes expanding your self-awareness, organizational skills, and communication skills.
**Professional Development**: Developing skills important to your professional goals. This includes establishing an understanding of professional conduct, setting priorities, and building your creative practice.
**Civic and Social Engagement**: Developing skills, knowledge and ways of navigating the world as a civic minded individual. For example, building capacity within a community through skills-sharing, or furthering intercultural competency and inclusivity.
