The APP Mentorship Program was developed as a sub-committee of the APP Advisory Board in July 2020. It is volunteer-run and designed to connect and empower UCSF APPs to learn from each other and create opportunities for professional development. 

If you have questions or are interested in participating as either a mentor or mentee, please reach out via email: [email protected]

 

*This program is only for UCSF APPs.

What others are saying

It's perfect timing because I met with my mentee yesterday and we realized that we had been meeting for 6 months already. It went by really fast and she is now going to be a mentor herself!

Thank you for this incredible opportunity to stretch the way we collaborate with each other. I'm actually thinking of challenging myself with my next mentee to actually participate in a projects together.
