About Onboarding
Welcome to Onboarding! This is the time where you’ll take steps to become certified, find a school placement, and start building a support network and community of leaders.
​
Between now and when you arrive in our region in June 2017, you’ll:
-
Work toward your licensure requirements, like registering for, taking, and passing your exams
-
Complete hiring requirements that’ll lead to your best school match, like updating your resume, going on interviews and getting to know the Chicago-Northwest Indiana context
-
Engage with your peers through virtual and in-person community spaces and begin to build your network of diverse, passionate, and impactful leaders
-
Prepare for Summer Training by building context through required pre-work—this could look like engaging in specific articles and videos on the history of oppression and resistance within Chicago and Northwest Indiana
