I am sending you a quick reminder to share with your graduate students. The Grad Slam registration deadline is   this Friday , and the last two professional development workshops for Grad Slam prep will take place   this week . The workshops are open to all graduate students regardless of whether they are registered for Grad Slam or not (see further details below). Grad Slam and the professional development workshops are excellent ways for students to gain valuable skills, including public speaking and research organization ,   that will prove invaluable in today’s competitive job market. In addition, past participants say the contest helps them focus their research in a way that allows them to better secure grants, land nonacademic jobs and share the value of their research with people outside their field of expertise.   As always, thank you for sharing this with your graduate students, and please let me know if there are any questions.
