Abstract
This chapter looks at the value of including a structured attendance at a professional association event as a mandatory course requirement. The requirement is compared to other approaches and how they support soft-skill course and program outcomes that are sometimes challenging to support in the curriculum. The paper discusses how the assignment can be structured and how the structure supports the intended outcomes.
