As a framework, it integrates civic engagement, professional experiences, and transferable skills and helps students become active and responsible citizens at local and global contexts and in the communities where they work and live. The idea of civic professionalism comes from William Sullivan, who identified three apprenticeships that students need to go through: intellectual training, practical training, and an “apprenticeship of purpose” that, according to Koritz, Schadewald, and St. Hubert (2016), “helps students understand and internalize the ethical standards and larger public purposes through which their works serves the public and contributes to the social good” (p. 6). This allows students to integrate their academic experiences with an understanding and skills to apply knowledge ethically as an employee, a citizen, and a human being. Civic professionalism falls under the umbrella of civic engagement and it also helps education students to understand their civic responsibilities in the work that they do – in the for-profit, nonprofit, or government sectors.Civic professionalism moves students beyond considering service to communities and to think about their identities and values professionally, personally, and civically. Civic engagement does not only happen during one’s free time –civic professionalism helps students situate the work that they are doing in and out of the office. LRME mentors and supervisors can be civic professionals. In their engagement with students, they can share the knowledge of their fields but also the purpose of the work that they are doing and how it affects civic impact and ethical implications. In order for students to understand civic professionalism, there needs to be an intentionality of providing them with opportunities to learn, practice, and reflect on the work they are doing and connecting it with academic courses and its role in the larger social good. According to Weinberg (2014), “we need to focus on preparing students for the professions broadly, including work in nonprofits, education, and socially responsible business, and for becoming social entrepreneurs. We also need to prepare students to work as professionals who act with others, not on others. We have an opportunity to produce a generation of doctors, lawyers, financial investors, and others who approach their jobs as citizen professionals, who are keenly aware of and interested in doing their jobs in ways that have a positive social impact.” Civic Professionalism References and Resources: Koritz, A., Schadewald, P., & St. Hubert, H.
