[csaa-forum] REMINDER: CSAA 2015 Mentorship Scheme: Call for Applications

[Elizabeth Stephens]

 Dear Colleagues,

This is a reminder that applications for the annual CSAA mentorship scheme for 2015 are closing soon.

Due to the volume of applications, the deadline cannot be extended.

This scheme is designed to provide professional guidance and support to CSAA members who are early career researchers, independent scholars, in non-continuing positions, or regional locations.

Successful applicants will be matched with a senior colleague, with whom they will have 6-8 mentoring meetings over the course of the year.  Meetings can take place in person, via skype or email, as mutually convenient.

The aim of the scheme is to assist our early career colleagues navigate the sometimes difficult transition from post/doctoral studies into continuing employment.

If you would like to participate in this scheme, please send an application, of no more than one page, containing the following information:

1.       Brief details of your research background and current circumstances
2.       Your goals for the next twelve months
3.       What support you are seeking from the scheme: ie, advice on publishing, job applications, grant writing etc.

Please note applicants must be members of the CSAA (see http://www.csaa.asn.au/join/index.shtml)

Applications should be sent to elizabeth.stephens at scu.edu.au<mailto:elizabeth.stephens at scu.edu.au> by Friday, February 27.

Best wishes,
Elizabeth
