How much peer support and pre-departure preparation would I like to have prior to starting my professional service assignment?
DPMI Plus participants develop a strong set of professional contacts through the three-week, intensive training, although only a small percentage of participants from a specific training will be departing on DPMI Plus assignments at the same time. Students can stay in touch through email, social-networking sites, and Zoho Project. The IPSS pre-departure training has the added benefit of helping students build a peer support network prior to departing for their IPSS assignment. Students go through the experience with a group of students, and they have the opportunity to reconvene for the capstone seminar and GSIPM Expo at the end of the program. IPSS brings together a group of peers working across a broad range of policy sectors, thereby giving students broader exposure to different policy fields.
