The mission for the HSC Staff Mentoring Program is to provide HSC staff with experiences and resources to explore the many opportunities for growth at the university.
The HSC Staff Mentorship program is brought to you by Joseph Wrobel, Chief Budget & Facilities Officer HSC, in collaboration with the university's Human Resources department. With Joseph Wrobel's executive sponsorship and HR's training resources, the newly revamped program is more structured and formalized in a way that will promote maximum growth and opportunity for both mentors and mentees.
All professional development workshops and events in the program are designed to promote the strengths and career potential of the mentees. Workshops are designed to help mentees identify and promote their strengths and skills and develop leadership skills. Mentors are encouraged to attend a few of the workshops with their mentee. Workshops in 2023 will be in an engaging virtual environment.
In addition to attending the workshops. Mentors and mentees are expected to meet once a month (in person, virtual etc.) for program duration, and complete the monthly check-in forms.
At the end of the program cohort, mentors and mentees who complete the program requirements receive a certificate of completion. To complete the program, mentees (and mentors) must complete the evaluations as part of the program cycle.
Mentees are required to attend at least three of the development sessions provided in order to complete the program.
The goal is to help improve the mentee's knowledge, skills and abilities as well as to understand the HSC culture. Mentors and mentees also have opportunities to network and exchange ideas.
