The Office of the Provost and Vice-Principal (Academic) has developed two innovative mentorship programs for pre-tenure and mid-career professors: the Provost's Faculty Mentorship Network (PFMN) and the Development Initiative for Academic Leadership (DIAL).
The PFMN offers mentorship opportunities to assistant professors to guide them through the beginning phases of their academic careers. The DIAL initiative offers leadership development opportunities to mid-career professors who show an interest and promise in moving into senior administrative roles at the university. Please visit the following links for detailed information about both programs.
