What was the most valuable aspect of the programming (e.g. orientation, webinars, mentor, attending PLUS events, relationships with your cohort)? Why?

LAMP has so much to offer, it’s tough to pick just one. The value of the program comes from a combination of various facets to maximize each candidate’s exposure. Through networking, mentorship, formal training, peer evaluations, the most valuable aspect is its multi-dimensional approach to provide a well-rounded experience.

What takeaway(s) from the program have you implemented in your own life/career and how has it benefitted you?

A major recurring theme revolved around taking ownership of your path both personally and professionally. Being self-aware of your own competencies, aspirations, and formulating an action plan to accomplish your goals becomes second nature. Holding yourself accountable is an effective reminder of this.

How has LAMP changed your career path?

One of the programs many benefits includes access to PLUS continuing education resources. LAMP emphasizes the importance of technical proficiency and supports its members in their pursuit of this knowledge. There is no substitute for sound expertise and this experience enabled me to further my learning.
