	May 18, 2023 at 2:52 PM	Cancelled	Mentorship Training	LECOM Med Erie - SGA	05/18/2023	07/06/2023	The Mentorship Training will be held over zoom from 2:30-4:30pm on 7/06/2023. Location: Zoom https://us05web.zoom.us/j/5527674620?pwd=TUFqVjlJREFkVkdpQ1IyOGJzYXBkdz09 Purpose: The purpose of implementing a mentorship training program for 2nd year medical students who will mentor 1st year students is to provide a structured platform for guidance, support, and knowledge sharing within the medical school community. The program aims to bridge the gap between experienced 2nd year students and incoming 1st year students, facilitating a smooth transition into the rigorous environment of medical school. Through mentorship, 2nd year students can offer valuable insights, advice, and encouragement to their 1st year mentees, helping them navigate the challenges of the curriculum, develop effective study strategies, and maintain a healthy work-life balance. Furthermore, the mentorship training program fosters a sense of camaraderie, creating a supportive network where 1st year students feel comfortable seeking guidance and mentorship from their more experienced peers. Ultimately, the program aims to enhance the overall academic success, personal growth, and professional development of both 1st and 2nd year medical students, while fostering a collaborative and nurturing learning environment within the medical school community. Funding: No funding is needed for this event. Timeline: The mentor applications should be submitted by 5/30/2023. The list of students will be reviewed by Dr. Thielman and Dr. Lee by mid-June. After they approve the list, we would forward the list of students to student affairs so that they too can approve the list. The general breakdown of the event will include me presenting the mentorship training PowerPoint to prospective mentors for 45 minutes. There will also be a separate mental health presentation given. Afterwards, I will address any questions the mentors have.
