Most Canadian schools and programs of public and population health require that students fulfill a practicum placement as a graduation requirement. This webinar will showcase the experience of recent graduates who completed a public health practicum placement and how the experience shaped their career path. They will discuss what they liked most, lessons learned, and tips for current students in the process of lining up a practicum.
