Today I began by searching through job listings for positions suitable for CTP graduates, and posted a summary of these positions to CTP’s skill center page. I decided to make note of small things I noticed while working on my tasks where I though efficiency could be improved to potentially bring up at a later time. I started my usual research tasks with looking for CTP alumni profiles, but didn’t have much luck with that. Afterwards, I wrote some notes about company research for the various outreach assignments given to Associates. I continued by adding new rehabilitation centers to the list of potential outreach candidates, and I also worked on DEI information for the remainder of the time. I’m hoping to be able to clarify my notes in the coming days.
