Ensuring a Successful Mentoring Experience
OFD is here to assist you with the forming of a supportive community-based mentoring committee to provide you clear, objective advice and facilitate networking and faculty development opportunities to build a successful academic career.
The Guidelines for Junior Faculty Mentoring Program were developed to ensure a program that provides the structure to keep your committee active and moving forward through your progression in academic rank.
Documentation and communication between you, your Division Chief and the OFD is essential to the success of your program. Below is a quick summary of documentation and a tool to submit needed documentation. If you have questions, please contact Janet Braun at janetbraun@wustl.edu .
