The Society for Scholarly Publishing (SSP) is now accepting applications for the next cohort of its Mentorship Program. After completion of the Fall 2018 cohort, the SSP Career Development Committee is now seeking potential mentors and mentees to participate in the program for Spring 2019.
This program is ideal for professionals at all career levels to develop new relationships, share experiences, and learn from others outside their organisations by connecting with a mentor. The next cohort will run from March through September 2019, and SSP is accepting applications for mentees and mentors now through February 8.
The initiative aims to connect members of SSP for the purposes of professional development, information exchange, networking, personal growth, and career advancement.
Accepted applicants will be matched with a mentor/mentee by the Career Development Committee. Mentors and mentees are expected to meet at least once per month for six months in-person, via telephone, or by other virtual means. Mentors and mentees are also required to attend an online orientation and virtual discussion group. There is no cost to apply, but program participants (both mentors and mentees) must be SSP members.
The program is currently sponsored by Origin Editorial.
