Mentorship Community
Community Objective
The Mentorship Community was established to provide a forum for those engaged in developing mentoring programs and supports to their trainees and colleagues as well as those exploring ways to do this.
Community Description
The Mentorship Community focuses on engaging in shared learning about mentorship (e.g. delivery models, approaches to the assessment and evaluation) and discussing shared challenges and successes in each other’s work in the area. The most recent event focused on preparation of mentors and mentees.
The Mentorship Community generally meets 1-2 times per year.
