Career: Academic skills

My sister sent me a link to a class that teaches "Graduate Research Methods In Psychology". I like how it is organized by a senior graduate student.

It would be nice if we had something like that for our physics department. Our department sponsors graduate student pizza lunch seminars and that seems like an ideal venue for "skill" talks. We could have talks on topics such as speaking, writing, ethics in science, creativity, life hacks (my personal favorite), etc.
