Describe how this experience was meaningful to you. Include what you learned (about yourself, practice, or the industry), any questions you have, and what you hope to remember.
Keeping your resume up to date is essential—it ensures you're ready to seize new opportunities as they arise and helps you reflect on your growth, skills, and evolving goals. A current resume is more than a document; it's a tool for self-awareness and career readiness.
The Practice Plan is a visual tool created to help reflect on how I will achieve the degree requirements of the distinct Practice Component of my education at the Boston Architectural College. Through "my active practice" I am building career readiness skills outside the classroom in a range of Practice Settings.
