Professional development is a very important element of a HESAA student’s success outside of the classroom. While the curriculum provides the foundational knowledge and competencies for success in the profession, student affairs educators must continually enhance their knowledge, skills and competencies to stay current within the dynamic field of higher education. HESAA students are encouraged to join professional associations, attend professional conferences, and participate in networking events when opportunities are presented.
