Center for Teaching & Mentoring
Mentoring
The Center for Teaching & Mentoring is committed to providing mentoring opportunities for faculty, academic affairs staff, and graduate students. Mentoring offers benefits, such as guidance, skill-building, network expansion, leadership growth, fresh perspectives, and much more.
Mentoring, as defined by the CTM, is a supportive relationship in which information is shared and discussed between at least two people to foster professional growth. Oftentimes, mentors are more experienced than mentees, and mentors share specific knowledge, skills, or experiences that support the mentee’s professional growth. However, we believe mentorship offers both the mentor and the mentee an opportunity to grow professionally.
