MENTOR-MENTEE PROGRAM

• We are half way through the semester
• There are two required meetings this semester for the pairings
• To earn points, submit pictures of each other meeting to canvas, this is much easier than emailing the picture as that takes longer
• Of the people who are in the program, I have 8 submissions for the first meeting only. Please meet with your pairings, even if it's simply here during the meeting
• Attending any AED event with your mentee will earn you an extra point for that event
• If you have any problems with your pairing please come see me after the meeting or contact me (email, groupme, or text)

​

• I have sent out new pairings to those who applied
• Canvas should be fixed so that you guys can turn in your meet-ups. It’s under the module “Spring 2025 Mentor/Mentee Program”
• It has the submission for the first and second mentor/mentee meet-ups as well as for medical student mentor meet-ups.

MENTOR-MENTEE PROGRAM

​

• The medical student mentor program

​

• I have sent out the pairings to the mentors and mentees, please start reaching out and set up a time to meet with them

​

• If you were not selected, please reapply next year, hopefully the program will be bigger and there will be more opportunity for you to be paired with someone

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

MENTOR-MENTEE PROGRAM

​

• PA student mentor program
• It will match AED members with current PA students much like the current Mentor program now

​

• I had more people than I expected that are interested so I am currently searching for a couple more PA students that would be willing to help out. If I cannot find anyone by the end of the weekend, I will have to cut some people that applied.

MENTOR-MENTEE PROGRAM

​

Running for the Mentorship Program Director

• Why should you?
• This role has given me a great opportunity to connect people within AED who otherwise probably would have never met
• The flow of information from mentor to mentee is extremely important for the entire medical school process. Facilitating that flow has been extremely rewarding
• There is plenty of room for growth and development for this program, so the sky's the limit.
• I know its not exactly the flashiest title, but the experiences I’ve had this year have been amazing. It teaches you to be a leader, extremely organized, and flexibility. Please, if you have any questions about the role, come and talk to me after the meeting or contact me after!
