About the Pathology Faculty Mentoring Program
The overall goal of the Pathology Faculty Mentoring Program is the successful career development and progression of all faculty. The OFD can assist you in creating a supportive mentoring committee to provide objective advice, facilitate networking and career development opportunities, and serve as sponsors and advocates. The Guidelines for the Faculty Mentoring Program describe this process. Below is an overview.
Communication between you, your Division Chief and the OFD is essential to the success of your mentoring program. If you have questions, please contact Janet Braun or Mark Watson.
Overview of Mentoring Program
- We recommend that Mentoring Committees meet annually for junior faculty. Mentoring Committees are also available for Associate Professors who seek additional career guidance
- Pre – Meeting: The Meeting Discussion Guide can serve as a guide/agenda for the meeting. The mentee should send this guide or a similar agenda, their WUSM CV/CEP, and their most recent Annual Review form and the previous year’s Annual Review letter from the Division Chief (if available) to committee members one week prior to the meeting.
- Post – Meeting: The Mentoring Committee Chair is asked to provide to OFD a brief synopsis of the meeting and may use this summary template.
