  Monday's resource is about taking advantage of MOOC's (Massive Open Online Courses). Platforms offer (often free!) courses and certifications in wide-ranging of topics. Taking the time and effort to go through these courses not only grow you professionally, but helps stand you out from other applicants. Examples of these are Hubspot Academy, LinkedIn Learning, and Harvard Open Courses.

  "When Looking for a Job? Highlight Your Ability, Not Your Experience"
  Jason Shen, a science major who went into tech instead, explains that many businesses who overvalue experience are missing out on quality applicants. He shares his own story and advice for convincing the hiring committee of your ability to do the job well and implores all employers to follow industry leaders in thinking outside the box on recruiting new personnel. This Ted Talk is a great resource for not only employers to watch, but jobseekers as well.
  Personal and Professional Development: Through AMA
  Friday's resource highlights the value of AMA memberships and encourages our members to take advantage of the offerings that memberships hold. Through an AMA membership, members are given access to free online trainings, toolkits, and crucial insights. The skills, tools, ad knowledge that AMA memberships are given access to is sure to promote personal and professional growth within individuals.
