Dear Colleagues,
We are now accepting applications for the next Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences (RBHS) Staff Mentoring Program (SMP) cohort, launching in January 2023.
This yearlong program has two pathways for engagement: traditional mentoring and peer-to-peer mentoring. The traditional mentoring pathway pairs early-mid career professionals with more senior career level staff mentors (based on availability). The peer-to-peer mentoring pathway pairs professionals at similar career stage together. Both pathways foster professional development and career growth while building networks across RBHS. The goals of the program are to promote a culture of mentorship, professional development, and collaboration amongst diverse staff members.
The RBHS Staff Mentoring Program is open to all staff with 3 or more years of service, however space is limited and contingent on available mentors (up to 30 staff members will be accepted). Applications are due November 15, 2022.
If selected in cohort, you will be expected to meet with your mentoring partner monthly through December 2023 (at a mutually convenient time) and attend monthly sessions on the following dates:
- January 25th 11:30am-1pm (virtual)
- February 15th 11:30am-1pm (virtual)
- March 15th 11:30am-1pm (virtual)
- April 12th 11:30am-1pm (in person)
- May 17th 11:30am-1pm (virtual)
