Meeting the needs of generation z and preparing future professionals

This webinar is presented by the ACAPT Leadership Academy (ALA).

Today’s physical therapy student likely identifies as “Generation Z”. They prefer a collaborative approach to learning and drawing from the experiences of others to deepen their learning. Designing learning experiences that integrate these unique needs is important to develop the physical therapy student as an adaptive learner. The 2017 National Study of Excellence in Education identified 9 priorities for transforming physical therapist education, including creating adaptive learners. 

• Discuss factors that serve as motivators for the full array of individuals that represent different generations in the workplace. (Developing) 
• Demonstrate strategies to build resilience in students and colleagues. (Relating)
• Adapt personal communication style to match style(s) of others to foster success in collaboration, negotiation, and influence.  (Relating)
• Design an experience in which students, faculty, and/or staff learn and practice multiple essential leadership skills, competencies, or behaviors. (Influencing)
