I can't quite figure out how to respond directly to the post but here goes:
Things IARP offers to students:
I'm aware of a scholarship but I was under the impression that it was for young professionals working in the field, not so much for students. I'm not sure where to find info on this.
I know IARP is a great place to network and connect with people but I am unaware of anything in particular that IARP does or offers in this regard.
Case management? Forensics? That sort of things? Communities / discussion forums?
- Access the experience and expertise of fellow IARP members. Online networking and discussion groups allow students access to the know-how of veteran practitioners. Student discussion group allows the exchange of experiences and information.
I know these things are possible but I've not done much of it. I have primarily met people and done my networking at conferences. I am subscribed (I think) to several different online communities / forums but they don't seem to generate much traffic.
Hello IARP students???? Where are you? Anyone still alive? :)
- Two peer-reviewed journals archived online for 24 hour access provide the latest research and information on best practices.
I wasn't aware of this but now I'll have to go and look. I did get an email copy of the Rehab Pro via email--that must be one of them.
- Student paper competition and the opportunity to collaborate with IARP members on articles for the journals
I know about the paper competition but I choose not to participate this year. I'm not aware of any opportunities to collaborate with IARP members on articles for the journals (presumably the ones mentioned above?).
- Conferences at the International, National, State and local levels
Check, check, check, and check! I haven't seen many students attending though. That's disappointing. The cost associated with it may be a factor.
I've only been a member since October. I don't think I've received one yet.
- Students can post a resume for free on the IARP Job Listings page
- Online directory and job listings.
I'm not sure if this is the kind of feedback you are looking for... I think I may have gotten this list when I first signed up. I've only been a member since October though so I haven't had much time to explore.
Best wishes,
