Professional Development Certificates: Mentoring, Grant Writing

[Ann Skoczenski]

Hello Postdoctoral Scholars,
Based on your feedback and requests, MIT’s Career Advising and Professional Development, in collaboration with the Office of the Vice President for Research and the School of Engineering Communication Labs, is pleased to offer two new professional development programs to boost your postdoctoral training.

Grant Writing Training Certificate
Grant writing is an essential skill that grows in importance during the transitions from graduate student to postdoc and faculty member. This certificate program provides training in principles of grant writing and the grant submission process, and will be especially useful for PhD students and postdocs planning for a research-focused faculty career, or research-centered roles in industry.
Research Mentoring Certificate

This program provides an opportunity for PhDs and postdocs to develop their mentoring skills and grow their practice of productive and inclusive research mentoring.  Fundamental to the success of mentors and mentees alike, mentoring is also a transferable skill that is highly valued within multiple contexts. Each session will be led by facilitators trained by the Center for the Improvement of Mentored Experiences in Research (CIMER).

Applications for these programs are now open, with a deadline of November 1st.  For more information and application links, please visit: https://capd.mit.edu/pd-certificates/
