Your formal training as a historian takes place in classes and seminars, writing a cognate paper, taking comprehensive exams, and producing a doctoral dissertation. But there are other facets to an academic career, including public speaking, networking, effective writing, publishing, applying for grants, and teaching. These are not always addressed directly or explicitly in your formal studies. The purpose of the PDW is to help prepare you for the many "other" parts of an academic career (as well as careers outside academe).
