Research (CIMER) <https://cimerproject.org/#/>. This 6-session online
facilitator training workshop is designed to increase the capacity for
research mentor trainings offered at colleges and universities, research
institutes, and governmental organizations. The National Academies report *The
Science of Effective Mentorship in STEMM*
<https://www.nap.edu/resource/25568/interactive/program-development-and-management.html#section1>

can help improve mentoring relationships.

*Workshop Overview:*

During this *6-session online “train-the-trainer” workshop from** August

introduced to *Entering
Mentoring*, a mentor training curriculum that addresses the following key
topics: aligning expectations, addressing equity and inclusion,
articulating your mentoring philosophy and plan, fostering independence,
maintaining effective communication, and promoting professional
development. Participants will learn evidence-based approaches to
implementing research mentor training and gain the knowledge, confidence,
and facilitation skills needed to design and implement training at their
institution or organization.

   2. Working with mentors whose trainees are undergraduate students,
   graduate students, postdocs, or junior faculty. Our workshop materials are
   currently optimized for use across science, technology, engineering,
   mathematics, and medicine fields.
   3. Committed to co-facilitating at least one research mentor training
   workshop within the next year.
   4. *Available to attend all 6 sessions*. You must attend the majority of
   the sessions including session 5 to become a designated trained facilitator.

*Registration Details:*

   - Registration fee is $1,695 per participant.
   - This workshop is limited to 24 participants. We highly encourage teams
   of two or more people from an institution or organization (limit 4) to
   attend together. Each individual needs to register.
   - The deadline to register is July 12, and is on a first-come,
   first-served basis. If the workshop is full, we will add you to a waitlist
