It’s never too early to join the Faculty Development Program. We welcome faculty at all stages of their careers – just starting out or further along.
Developed by program director Andem (Andy) Ekpenyong, MD, Rush’s new URM Faculty Development and Mentorship Program offers content and experiences tailored to the specific needs of each individual participant.
A series of short online modules serves as a springboard for each participant to create and realize their career goals. Module topics are selected for relevance to faculty across specialties, including:
To accommodate the hectic work schedules of our faculty members, there are no scheduled classes or meetings. Participants set their own schedule and pace.
Working with an assigned mentor, participants will complete short assignments and provide periodic progress updates. This work will culminate in the development of a portfolio, which can be used to build a promotion packet or meet other career goals.
The program is free to all participants.
