Mentoring

Book

Overview

The rheumatology mentoring scheme offers a unique opportunity for career development and support, pairing you with a trusted mentor with relevant skills and knowledge.

We offer two individual programmes, one for developing clinicians, nurses and health professionals, and one for academics.

You can be part of one or both, mentor and/or be mentored.

We recommend meeting 4-5 times per year, but mentoring relationships can be as long or short as you require.

Relationships can be conducted face to face, phone, email or virtually, via Skype, FaceTime and so on.
