The Postdoc Academy is a comprehensive digital and in-person NIH-funded professional development program from Boston University, Northwestern University, Michigan State University, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

The annually hosted online course, The Postdoc Academy: Succeeding as a Postdoc, is a flexible free 6-week course that helps postdocs develop strategies and skills to successfully navigate their time as a postdoc and create a rewarding experience that will launch them into their chosen career path.

Themes explored include:

• Finding Success as a Postdoc
• Building an Actionable Career Plan
• Developing Resilience
• Working Effectively in an Intercultural Environment

Although the current course has already launched, all MSU postdocs have access to the resources provided by the Postdoc Academy at any time.
