Most early-career researchers (ECRs) are exposed only to the â??traditionalâ?? academic career, as it is often the path taken by their supervisors, and also where qualifications are gained. Consequently, many ECRs are often unaware of, and feel unprepared for, the many opportunities within and outside academia. These include research- and teaching-only academic jobs, government and funding organizations, and many private sector careers. In this workshop we seek to prepare ECRs to explore the many varied career paths that are open to them. Invited speakers will represent different career paths from different regions of the world, and will discuss how they got into their careers, the skills that their roles require, and the challenges they have faced. Non-academic speakers will share how they transitioned from academia into their current positions. Participants can expect to learn how the myriad of transferable skills they have acquired along their graduate school journeys can also be used outside of academia, and to pick up tips for continuing in academia if they so choose. 5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5 ------------------------------
