Working in international education is a fulfilling career fueled by a dedication to making the world a better place. Although rewarding, the fluctuating nature of the field, demanding workloads, and a requirement to adjust to unanticipated challenges can affect your ability to take care of your own physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
In this NAFSA e-Learning seminar, a psychology and counseling expert will discuss ways in which professionals can increase their resilience to cope with the dynamic nature of the field. Participants will learn how to apply proven methods to cultivate a supportive office culture; how to recognize and address burnout in themselves and others; and how to reclaim their professional and personal spark.
Objectives
After attending this NAFSA e-Learning Seminar, participants will be able to:
- Recognize and discern the symptoms of professional burnout, exhaustion, and fatigue;
- Develop proactive measures to control situations that often overwhelm staff;
- Promote role model behaviors that establish a supportive and caring environment;
- Create a self-care plan that helps build emotional resilience and well-being.
The content of this seminar will be relevant to professionals working within all aspects of international education. Feel free to invite your campus colleagues from the counseling and psychological services centers.
