Staff
Early Academic Career Development Mentorship Scheme

Each mentee will be assigned to a mentor.  There will be an introductory session to brief of the Scheme, lay down the general guidelines, ground rules and knowing each other.   Four workshops will then be organised for all mentors/mentees.  Participation in these workshops is optional except that for the first workshop, which will be delivered by the PTP/USPC members, is mandatory to mentees.

There will be a certificate presentation session to mark the end of the Scheme and officially end the mentor/mentee relations.  Mentors/Mentees should undertake to treat the communication during the mentoring sessions strictly confidential.  No exchange of information between mentor and supervisor should be made.
