The RF Mentoring Program connects knowledgeable Mentors with Protégés, from across the system, who are looking to further develop their talents and expertise. Mentors and Protégés participate side-by-side in an 8-week live-online learning intensive experience. Guided by our commitment to creating generations of future leaders, the program is modeled on the faculty-student mentor-protégé relationship.
The 2022 cohort will be held on Thursdays January 6th through February 24th from 9am-12pm.
All RF/SUNY employees working in Research Administration and Commercialization, directly or indirectly, are welcome to apply.
