Call for Mentors: CHOP Career Mentoring Program 2024-2025

The Office of Academic Training and Outreach Programs (ATOP) will once again be offering the CHOP Career Mentoring Program beginning in October 2024. Our previous program cohorts included 40 mentoring pairs of CHOP faculty and postdoc alumni matched with current CHOP postdocs.

This mentorship initiative will engage current postdoctoral fellows and current research staff who have recently completed their postdoc fellowships.

ATOP is actively seeking CHOP faculty and postdoc alumni to participate as mentors in this program.

Program Specifics:

• Advance and promote a culture of mentoring at CHOP
• Provide CHOP postdocs an opportunity to develop a career mentoring relationship with CHOP postdoc alumni from various career paths or faculty beyond their own department or division
• Program will run from October 2024 to June 2025 with applications open to postdocs in Summer 2024, view program timeline
• Mentoring pairs will meet at least once per month in-person or virtually (10-12 hours total over a 9-month period)
• Specific career-focused tracks and programming (i.e. industry, academia) will be offered for the FY25 program

If you are interested in serving as a mentor, please complete this brief form by Friday, May 31. Participating mentors will be asked to complete a full mentor profile at a later date.
