Mentoring Postdocs Orientation
Portland State faculty members are not able to hire postdoctoral scholars. To hire a postdoc, faculty members must attend a required mentor training session. In partnership with EXITO Scholars, Research & Graduate Studies is offering two mentor training sessions in the coming month. These training sessions are an excellent opportunity to meet colleagues hiring postdocs and hear tips from those who have been involved in mentoring relationships through EXITO.
The workshops will cover:
  1. Establishing and aligning expectations for mentoring relationships
  2. Assessing understanding
  3. Promoting professional development
The training sessions will be held on Friday, February 22, from 1-4 p.m. and Thursday, February 28, from 2-5 p.m. in the Richard and Maurine Neuberger Center (formerly the Market Center Building), Room 316 (third floor, 1600 SW Fourth Ave. Portland OR 97201.
