As part of its commitment to helping staff members grow their careers, Johns Hopkins University launched a Center for Staff Life Design during this academic year.
The center's workshops, courses, events, and experiential learning are designed to help you bridge where you are today with what you want to do tomorrow, as well as how you want to do it. This summer, CSLD is offering a robust schedule of classes and social activities. Here's what you can join.
