Would you benefit from connecting with a mentor to foster your professional development in SCI/D practice or research?

Are you interested in sharing your knowledge and expertise with an early career practitioner or student in the SCI/D field?

Join the ASCIP Mentoring Program!

Eligible Mentees:  ASCIP early career members within 5 years of beginning practice OR 5 years of beginning practice in SCI. Due to differences in training programs across disciplines, eligibility forstudent participation is outlined below:

• APS: Mentees must have completed their degree and be in residency or fellowship.
• PSWC: Mentees may include any graduate student, intern, or postdoc.
• SCIN: Mentees may include any nursing student.
• TLC: Mentees must have an entry-level practice degree. Students are expected to receive appropriate mentorship during fieldwork/clinical rotations & therefore are excluded from this program.
