Dear Health Security Professional:
Are you looking for ways to
help the next generation of global health security professionals?
Consider becoming a mentor through the
Next Generation Global Health Security (NGGHS) Mentorship Program. The
NGGHS Mentorship Program promotes and supports early to mid-career
professionals and students with an interest in health security.
NGGHS mentors cultivate professional relationships with protégés who
are developing skills to continue promoting a world safe and secure from health
security threats.
Criteria for Mentors
Mentors are experienced health
security professionals willing to provide coaching and support for one
or more developing early to mid-career professional(s) and/or students, in
one-to-one or small group formats. Protégés are members of the Next
Generation Global Health Security Network who have expressed an interest in
establishing a mentoring relationship with experienced health security
professionals. Mentor involvement can vary: some mentors may
serve in an advisory role, while others may choose to pursue a collaboration
with their protégé(s). At heart, the most important thing is the ability
and willingness to help.

include:
·
Agreeing to attend the
NGGHS Mentorship Program Discussion Forum

protégé(s) on a regular basis (at least monthly)
