Join Oregon State University on Monday, June 14th at 1 pm PDT for an engaging panel discussion featuring outdoor industry leaders – including OOA’s Co-President, Mike Wallenfels – and alumni from OSU and its Center for the Outdoor Recreation Economy’s inaugural Outdoor Industry Leadership cohort.
If you’re a rising professional who’s ready to step into your own as a leader in the outdoor recreation economy—or if you’re looking for a meaningful professional development program for your team, we encourage you to join us for this free online event.
Panelists will share stories from their own career journeys and offer advice to rising or aspiring outdoor professionals about the skills, connections, and experiences that support successful careers in the outdoor economy.
This discussion also explores professional development opportunities, including the Center’s Outdoor Industry Leadership Certificate, which is now accepting applications for Fall 2021.
