				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you have passion or interest in helping others with their mental health and well-being? If so, you may want to consider a career in the field of healthcare. Most of us are familiar with a few of the most well-known healthcare occupations. After all, we’ve likely visited a doctor for a cold, been to the dentist office for a routine cleaning with the dental hygienist, saw a physiotherapist for a sports injury, or observed a nurse in action caring for a loved one. However, many of us would be surprised to learn that there are many different occupations in the field of healthcare, more than we may have ever imagined!</p>
<p>If you’re interested in learning more about pathways to becoming a therapist, be sure to attend one or more of the <a href="http://bit.ly/um-discover-healthcare">Discover Your Future in Healthcare</a>&nbsp; (DYFIH) virtual sessions or check out one of the recorded sessions and discover the many healthcare options available for you! Career Services will be highlighting a few healthcare occupations this year including:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>DYFIH – <a href="https://umconnect.umanitoba.ca/events.htm?eventId=5396">Art Therapist</a>:</strong> Tuesday, February 18 | 1:30 to 3:00 p.m.</li>
<li><strong>DYFIH – <a href="https://umconnect.umanitoba.ca/events.htm?eventId=5397">Mental Health Therapist/Counsellor</a>:</strong> Thursday, February 20 | 12:30 to 2:00 p.m.
<ul>
<li>This session will have panel members with Clinical Psychology background, M.Ed in Counselling Psychology, Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy, and a Masters in Social Work</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Each session in the series offers the chance to learn first-hand about the occupation and will feature a few professionals from the field who will speak about their experiences in the role. Admissions and academic program information will also be highlighted, if applicable.</p>
<p>All sessions will be virtual. Register in advance on <a href="https://umconnect.umanitoba.ca/myAccount/career/events.htm">UMConnect</a> to reserve your spot today!</p>
