Apply for the Women-to-Women Leadership and Mentoring Program at UC Clermont

UC Clermont College is holding its annual leadership and mentoring program for women, focusing on developing leadership skills and providing academic support. This program sponsored by the UC Clermont College Success Program links women students at UC Clermont with mentors on Clermont and Uptown campuses, and creates a community of women and a flexible support system.
 
Program Details:
This is a program targeted toward women students who would like a greater network of support to help them move through their academic careers here at UC Clermont or to aid in transition to a further academic program.  It offers information, individual support, and the development of skills that will help students make the best use of their education, such as communication skills, assertiveness, and leadership skills.

This project, facilitated by a group of UC Clermont College faculty, staff and students, will run through UC’s Spring Semester 2016.  Mentees will be paired with mentors, and together they will create their own flexible agenda.  Students can choose to pair with a UC Clermont student mentor, a mentor from UC Uptown campus who has made a transition from Clermont College (and in the same or similar discipline), or a faculty mentor.  There will be a few meetings of the entire group of participants, where discussion amongst the group and with inspiring guest speakers can occur, along with mentor/mentee trainings, and community building. One final meeting near the end of the spring semester will finish out the formal project. 
 
Both mentors and mentees:
•  gain valuable communication skills
•  gain valuable leadership skills
•  develop new close relationships
•  experience an enhanced sense of community
