Meet the Students and Professionals

In my last post I mentioned we six transportation professionals attending the course with us, in addition to 17 undergraduate and graduate students. The students have always been required to blog as part of their class grade, but this year we made blogs required for professionals as well. We always hope the professionals become inspired to go home and do excellent work, yet it can be quick to forget your experience once returning home. So the intent with the blogs is for the professionals to think critically about their own organizations and communities, reflect on how their experience traveling about Denmark feels different, and then consider what barriers they face in their own work to bringing about change.

The professionals will also find time upon return to share the lessons they learned with their management and broader institution, again in an effort to create change and learn from Danish best practices. I've shared the professionals blog links below, and the student blogs before that, for anyone who is interested in exploring them further.
