Faculty Peer Mentoring Program
The purpose of the Faculty Peer Mentoring Program is to provide support and resources for tenure-track faculty through “cluster peer mentoring” and CTL-facilitated opportunities for professional and scholarly advancement in participants’ faculty roles.
The program is designed for tenure-track and tenured faculty in educational leadership and research streams. It is intended to supplement rather than replace existing informal and formal inter-departmental mentoring.
For information about this program, please contact Barbara Komlos (barbara.komlos@ubc.ca).
Dates: Formal activities will begin in September and conclude in early May. Register Now!
