Graduate Mentoring Workshop Series

In collaboration, the Office of Faculty Affairs and the Office of Graduate & Postdoctoral Affairs will again be offering the Graduate Mentoring Workshop Series throughout the 2026-2027 academic year! This workshop series is informed by the foundational elements of the Entering Mentoring Training provided by the Center for the Improvement of Mentored Experiences in Research (CIMER) and tailored to support our KU community. This training focuses on four key areas of mentoring best practices: setting and aligning expectations, effective communication with mentees, using Individual Development Plans (IDPs) in your mentoring practice, and supporting your mentees in developing resilience, self-efficacy, and independence
