\"learnLead_cogs_NewText\"<\/a>As we mark the\u00a0end of September, many of you are acclimating to a new school year, new professors, and new challenges in pursuit of career goals. Many students enter into this professional concourse more with a sense of duty than ambition or enthusiasm. But this time of year can be ideal for taking a personal inventory to assess where your studies are leading.<\/p>\n

Whether you are in an ultrasound education program, or beginning your work in a clinical\/laboratory setting it\u2019s always prudent to harmonize your career trajectory and individual goals.\u00a0 For most of you, there was an aspiration<\/a> that guided you into the field of ultrasound studies.\u00a0 This season can be the best time to measure whether that passion is still active and operative.<\/p>\n

SPECIALIZATION<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Is there an area of specialization that inspires a greater interest and fulfillment in you ?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is not an insignificant exercise.\u00a0 One of Pegasus Lectures\u2019 most popular Free CMEs is “High Touch in a High Tech World<\/a>“, presented by Steve Talbot, RVT, FSVU<\/a>.\u00a0 Within Steve\u2019s presentation, he shares his personal journey in the world of healthcare, and offers insights on the different types of healthcare workers and their impact on the delivery and results of patient care.\u00a0 You cannot walk away from his story without getting a sense for the passion that drives his practice<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"high-touch-graphic\"<\/a>Investing time for an honest appraisal of why you are in a particular field of study and what you hope to achieve both personally and professionally will assure you do not go too far down a career path that is fundamentally unfulfilling to you.<\/p>\n

CREDENTIALING EXAMS<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHow prepared am I?\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Probably the biggest anxiety-driver for beginning and advanced students, clinicians, their mentors, and professors.\u00a0 There are few emotions as consoling as knowing you are prepared for your board or credentialing exam<\/a>.\u00a0 At Pegasus Lectures, there is no greater joy than getting that phone call, e-mail or letter from a successful candidate sharing their excitement and relief.<\/p>\n

However, now<\/u><\/strong> is the time to target and map the incremental steps<\/a> necessary to ensure full preparedness<\/a> for the challenge of an upcoming board exam.<\/p>\n

The groundwork for getting to that point where confidence eclipses anxiety will be our theme in the next blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
