The CIRES Mentoring program is modeled after the American Geophysical Union’s Mentoring365 program. This program aims to foster professional growth and career development for mentees and mentors. Through an exchange of professional knowledge, skills, insights, and experience, mentors can support mentees with planning career goals, navigating work-life balance, getting past roadblocks, and more. In particular, this program provides a framework for mentees to find mentors within CIRES who can provide unique insight into the CIRES-NOAA ecosystem. In return, mentors benefit from the program by gaining experience with mentoring, expanding their network, and promoting self-reflection.
