Careers in Education - Policy and Reform
"As a senior thinking about next steps in the education field, the event was incredibly insightful and helpful. The panelists affirmed the benefit of teaching in a classroom before working in education policy to establish "street cred," but cautioned against using teaching as a means to an end. They spoke of the major advantage you will have if you can speak across a broad spectrum of education-minded people (politics, policy, practice, and academia)."
