Session Type: Special Interests

The session will provide an introduction to the College of Fellows, online resources to support the application process, step-by-step information about completing the application and tips for writing a successful application. Presenters also will discuss requirements such as criteria, letters of support and any changes in the application from the previous year. Information about the GoodFellows coaching program — designed to support applicants through the application process — will be featured, and ample time will be provided for questions and answers.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to: 
• Review criteria to become a Fellow by understanding the College of Fellows requirements as well as the application/selection processes. 
• Underline required examples needed for each criterion and what makes a good letter of support. Presenters will discuss the six criteria that an applicant must address in regard to professional experience and qualifications.
• Find out about the GoodFellows coaching program. Participants will be shown the benefits of having a trained GoodFellow coach (a member of the College of Fellows) while working through the application process.
• Pick up tips on how to prepare the application and avoid common mistakes.
