YCC is starting a mentor matching program for CSW to pair younger DC area chemists with mentors in their desired career.
The idea is to get responses from CSW members who are looking for a mentor, as well as those willing to mentor others. YCC will not only pair CSW mentors with mentees, but establish a mentor database that can be updated periodically.
If you are interested in participating, please fill out the survey links below. Your information will only be used by YCC organizers for pairing purposes and mentors will always be contacted first to confirm their availability before matches are made.
YCC will also be hosting CSW Career Day in April 2018. We are looking for volunteers to speak, organize, and serve on panels. If you are interested in participating or attending career day, please also fill out those questions in the survey links to let YCC know how you’d like to get involved and what dates in April you are available.
Early Career Chemist Survey: https://goo.gl/forms/enrEP3TDTPZrF1xB3
Mentor/CSW Member Survey: https://goo.gl/forms/O9tew3woRgTyvitC2
If you are interested in both mentoring a younger chemist and receiving a mentor, (a great option for folks in the first 5-10 years post-graduation) please fill out both surveys.
In addition to matching mentors to early-career chemists, YCC will provide resources and support to help facilitate these mentoring relationships as appropriate.
We look forward to your participation!
