UW Tacoma Professional Development Center is excited to announce the three winners of our first-ever scholarship for emerging HR professionals.
Former PDC student Laurie Miller shares how obtaining a professional certificate from UW Tacoma nearly a decade ago helped her grow her career and remain up to date with her skills while working full-time.
Project management skills are actually universally applicable on the job and at home – being a good project manager also makes you a more effective person in life. It gives you practical skills to accomplish more and reach new heights personally and professionally.
One of the scholarships is awarded to Sandy Kelley, who "aims to obtain a certification in human resources management" through UW Tacoma's Professional Development Center.
“To make a (career) change at the age of 50 and to move away from a career that I am good at is the stuff of craziness. But when I really sat down and really thought about why would I stay ... they were safe, they were comfortable, but they didn’t support my own growth.”
