GPC SkillXchange: Share, Learn, & Lead

Empowering graduate students through peer-led learning.

The Graduate Professional Council’s SkillXchange is a peer-to-peer learning initiative that equips Mizzou’s graduate and professional students with valuable technical and research skills. The program promotes collaboration, hands-on learning, and professional development by creating a space where students can teach and learn from one another in an interactive, supportive environment.

Led by the GPC director of professional development and supported by the Graduate School, SkillXchange offers workshops, practical training sessions and mentorship opportunities to help students build essential skills for research and career advancement.
