Schedule
On-site experiences are essential to this program. They create a sense of community and networking among cohorts, allows for hands-on application of financial planning and counseling tools, and create career opportunities among the firms that sponsor residency dinners. Each on-site experience includes leadership dinners where students will be exposed to industry trends, practitioner knowledge, insights, potential employment opportunities and industry-specific leadership lessons.
