Cultivating Mentors Train-the-Trainer Series
UNC’s former Initiative for Maximizing Student Development, in partnership with Theater Delta, developed this Cultivating Mentors Toolkit.
This project was made possible by funding from NIH’s National Institute of General Medical Sciences (Grant #R25-GM055336-S1) along with financial support from UNC School of Medicine’s former Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and the Office of Faculty Affairs and Leadership Development. Technical support is provided by UNC School of Medicine’s Information Technology Instructional Media Services.
