2024-25 Mentoring workshop series for graduate students and postdocs now available
|
Graduate and Postdoctoral Education offers two separate series of mentoring workshops for graduate students and postdocs, as well as faculty, designed to help research mentors enhance their skills and develop productive relationships with mentees. In order to create a safe space for authentic conversations between participants at similar levels in their careers, we are offering separate sessions for faculty versus graduate students and postdocs.
Individuals who complete five workshops will receive a certificate of completion. This series is planned to run annually, so there will be additional opportunities to complete the series. If you have already completed a workshop previously, that will also count towards the certificate.
