3. Designing and writing your Master Pro project

Workshop over 1 session.
Duration: 1h30

For applications to all masters programs (professional or LLCER professional path), reflection/preparation of one's professional project is essential. This is an individual process, but can also be carried out collectively. The aim is to undertake this process in the greatest harmony and serenity. Trust yourself, be dynamic and be proud of your school and your training.
Why building the pro project is essential:

It will enable you to have a goal two years into your studies.
It will motivate you to complete your studies by constantly linking them to your project.
It will also force you to look for job offers/internships/civic services right away, by turning to the economic world (private, public, associations, international NGOs, etc.).

The method proposed during the workshop:

Start with a dual assessment: what have my studies and my volunteer/student job/internship experiences brought me.
Look at the skills acquired in both areas. For studies, you need to think about translating your academic knowledge into specific or cross-disciplinary skills.
Develop professional soft skills, a willing attitude that's open to the economic world.
Start identifying possible careers based on individual experiences and career paths.
Use professional social networks: Alumni, LinkedIn.
