In Episode 53 of Centering Centers, we hear from three brand new educational developers who recently attended the POD Conference in November of 2023. Grouped in the "getting started" two day workshop, these new PODsters share their takeaways and reflections on their experience. This conversation will be of interest to those who are new to an educational development role as well as to those who lead and mentor new educational developers, as each of the three brings a unique disciplinary perspective and each is at very different places in their professional careers.
