[ASA] ECR Chapter Mentoring Program

[Sarah Martell]

Dear ASA members,


We are pleased to invite you to participate in our mentoring program. 
Mentoring is consistently mentioned as an important ingredient in 
professional development and career success, and we are hopeful that our 
mentoring program will provide our ECR members with perspective, advice 
and connections within the astronomical community.


Here's a quick overview of the program: we are looking for both people 
to be mentored, and for people to act as mentors as well. There is a 
quick survey (one for mentors and one for mentees), and based on the 
survey results we will match mentors and mentees. The pairs will meet 
two or three times a year (or more if you wish), either in person or 
over video chat, and those meetings will be strictly confidential.


If you want to participate in the program, either as a mentor or as a 
mentee, please fill out this quick survey, preferably by 8 March:

Mentees: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/asaecrmentees_2018

Mentors: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/asaecrmentors_2018

and we'll make the matches and get the program rolling.


Further information, and links to the slides and summary notes from past 
ECR workshops, are available on the ECR Chapter web site: 
http://asaecr.smp.uq.edu.au/mentoring/. Please feel free to send any 
questions about this program to Sarah Martell, s.martell at unsw.edu.au 
<mailto:s.martell at unsw.edu.au> or Jesse van de Sande, 
jesse.vandesande at sydney.edu.au <mailto:jesse.vandesande at sydney.edu.au>.


You need to be a member of the ECR Chapter to participate in the 
mentoring program, and you can join through the ASA members portal at 
asa.wildapricot.org, or by emailing the Steering Committee at 
asa.ecr.chapter at gmail.com.


All the best,

The ECR Chapter Steering Committee
